Techno-optimistic scientists were less likely to engage in civic action (e.g., signing petitions, participating in protests) and high-impact lifestyle changes (e.g., reducing flying, shifting to plant-rich diets)

On average, their engagement was 28% and 20% lower, respectively.

‘Inviting the fox into the henhouse’: Canada delegation to COP30 loaded with fossil fuel representatives
Delegation’s composition consistent with new KBPO report revealing this year’s UN climate talks have the largest number of fossil fuel lobbyists to date

3) As emphasized by the strategic communication literature,
communication efforts should be a key component of the overall policy planning. Some informants, the authors spoke to pointed to a lack of communication resources as a significant shortcoming in their contact with the public.

2) The need for context-sensitive communicative efforts fx to reduce tensions. Policy packages cannot simply transplant blueprints from larger metropolitan areas; their messaging must be tailored to the specific social, spatial, and institutional landscapes of the implementation region.

Individual measures may appear unjust, illogical and disconnect. Therefore, stakeholders must be guided through the broader policy narrative to create more clarity and context.

Based in its finding, it offers three key recommendations for
policymakers.

1) Communication strategies must convey the totality of the transport system—across space, time, and transport modes—by clearly situating every individual measure within a broader strategic vision. Why?
November 13, 2025 at 9:06 AM
Unsettling, why? Because its filling a gap in strategic communication litterature and because it shows that strategic communication has long been merely an accessory to policy.

Which it is not: it is a constitutive element of policy success in sustainable urban transport transitions. 2/

The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is set to reach 425.7 parts per million in 2025.

Emerging climate impacts on the land and ocean carbon sinks contributed 8% to the rise in atmospheric CO2 concentration since 1960.

The land and ocean CO₂ sink are 25% and 7% smaller, respectively, than they would have been without the effects of climate change and variability, on average for the 2015-2024 period.

Combined, this is equivalent to the total sink (land and ocean) being nearly 20% smaller than otherwise.

The land & ocean CO2 sinks were re-evaluated based on stronger evidence & new understanding
• The ocean CO2 sink was re-evaluated upwards, taking up 29% of the total emissions.
• The land CO2 sink was re-evaluated downwards, taking up 21% of the total emissions.

Brazil, Indonesia, & D.R. Congo together contribute 57% of the global net land-use change CO2 emissions.

The largest carbon uptake through re/afforestation in China, USA, & EU.

Substantial uptake occurs in Brazil, Russia, & Indonesia, but is outweighed by emissions from deforestation.

Global CO2 emissions from land-use change are expected to decrease in 2025, driven by reductions in deforestation and degradation fires in South America.

Land-use change emissions have decreased since their peak in the late-1990s, in particular in the past decade.
