Excited about the first publication from my time at @yaleclimatecomm.bsky.social! 🎉
Much research on the drivers of climate engagement relies on participants self-reporting their intentions to act - but are people’s intentions reflective of their actual behaviour?

Critical comms about climate change is increasingly happening on social media. But it is challenging to study climate comms on popular social media platforms, so researchers often rely on survey research. How much do survey responses tell us how things will play out on social media? Thread 🧵

Do persuasive messages convince more people, or do they convince people to a larger degree?
In our new working paper, we examine this question with 14 experiments, 94 messages tested, and 41,265 participants.

Climate #inequality in three sentences:
1️⃣ Inequality in who causes climate change
2️⃣ Inequality in who suffers the worst consequences
3️⃣ Inequality in who influences climate action (or inaction)
Sadly, those who suffer most have done little to cause the problem and have limited power to address it.
