Article: How Effective are Climate Protests at Swaying Policy—and what could make a difference
November 28, 2023
Nature has just published “How Effective are Climate Protests at Swaying Policy—and what could make a difference.” By CECE Director Dana R. Fisher, Oscar Berglund, and Colin J. Davis.
The piece integrates Fisher’s research on climate protests and the growing radical flank in climate activism with Berglund and Davis’ work on public responses to climate action, which finds that disruptive activism does not seem to reduce concern about climate change or support for climate policymaking. The paper will be published in print in the November 30th issue of Nature on the first day of the COP28 round of climate negotiations.
