Psychology and Climate Change: Human Perceptions, Impacts, and
Responses organizes and summarizes recent psychological research
that relates to the issue of climate change. The book covers topics
such as how people perceive and respond to climate change, how
people understand and communicate about the issue, how it impacts
individuals and communities, particularly vulnerable communities,
and how individuals and communities can best prepare for and
mitigate negative climate change impacts. It addresses the topic at
multiple scales, from individuals to close social networks and
communities. Further, it considers the role of social diversity in
shaping vulnerability and reactions to climate change. Psychology
and Climate Change describes the implications of psychological
processes such as perceptions and motivations (e.g., risk
perception, motivated cognition, denial), emotional responses,
group identities, mental health and well-being, sense of place, and
behavior (mitigation and adaptation). The book strives to engage
diverse stakeholders, from multiple disciplines in addition to
psychology, and at every level of decision making - individual,
community, national, and international, to understand the ways in
which human capabilities and tendencies can and should shape policy
and action to address the urgent and very real issue of climate
change.
