COP26 Psychology: Climate Change & Behaviour Change With Dr Jordan Harold From University of East Anglia
12th November 2021 @ 10:30 - 11:00
The climate is changing – why aren’t we?
Despite wide recognition that climate change poses a major threat, people are yet to adapt their lifestyles at the scale needed. What influences our everyday behaviours that contribute to climate change? What can be done to enable people to adopt more climate-friendly behaviours?
Join Jordan Harold from UEA’s School of Psychology for a look at how people think and make decisions and the impact this could have on our collective response to climate change.
