This paper aims to highlight the significant role of culture in human responses global environmental challenges. Specifically, it discusses three thematic clusters research, which demonstrate that: (i) can influence pro-environmental behavior through shaping values and moderating relationship between psychological determinants such behavior; (ii) perceptions nature its relationships with humans vary across cultures; (iii) consumption behaviors are often shaped by practices that constitute social life within communities. Evidence from these research suggests understanding cultural dynamics is essential for designing effective, context-sensitive interventions aimed at driving sustainability transitions. Future should further explore interplay non-cultural contextual factors consider perspectives underrepresented regions.

Climate change is currently one of humanity’s greatest threats. To help scholars understand the psychology climate change, we conducted an online quasi-experimental survey on 59,508 participants from 63 countries (collected between July 2022 and 2023). In a between-subjects design, tested 11 interventions designed to promote mitigation across four outcomes: belief, support for policies, willingness share information social media, performance effortful pro-environmental behavioural task. Participants also reported their demographic (e.g., age, gender) several other independent variables political orientation, perceptions about scientific consensus). no-intervention control group, measured important additional variables, such as environmentalist identity trust in science. We report collaboration procedure, study raw cleaned data, all materials, relevant analysis scripts, data visualisations. This dataset can be used further understanding psychological, demographic, national-level factors related individual-level action how these differ countries.

A critical step in tackling climate change involves structural, system-level changes facilitating action. Despite their ubiquity, little is known about how internet search algorithms portray change, and these portrayals impact concern In a sample of 49 countries, we found that nationwide concern, but not nation-level impact, predicted the emotional arousal caused by Google Image Search outputs, as rated naive (n = 383). follow-up experiment randomly assigned another 899) to receive image outputs resulting from searches conducted countries high or low pre-existing participants exposed images with (compared low) became more concerned supportive policy likely act pro-environmentally, suggesting cycle sentiment propagation systemically facilitated algorithms. We discuss implications findings for action interventions. The influence on users' beliefs behaviours remains understudied. This study finds content which subsequently influenced support policy.

Abstract Individuals and governments often fail to take action address climate change owing largely widespread politicization of the issue related discourse. In response recent appeals for non‐partisan approaches pro‐environmentalism, we propose that highlighting one's responsibility future generations (RFG) could offer promise across political spectrum. We argue RFG may be effective because it is widely endorsed, uncorrelated with demographic indicators less tied ideology compared other forms responsibility, such as personal mitigation. Across six main seven supplementary studies ( N = 161,633), provide evidence these claims. not only endorsed countries groups but also significantly predicts various measures pro‐environmental behaviour, both in correlational pre‐registered experimental contexts. These findings confirm established effects, reconcile inconsistencies suggest prioritizing intergenerational effectively reshape narratives most resistant parties.

To limit the devastating effects of climate change, individuals need to engage in pro-environmental behaviours. Psychological interventions could be an effective tool for promoting such actions. However, previous work has measured effectiveness on self-reported attitudes and neglected impacts behaviour. Pro-environmental behaviours, as cycling, are often more effortful than alternative driving. Therefore, assessing whether requires measuring how motivated people exert effort benefit climate. Here, we developed a novel Pro-Environmental Effort Task (PEET) examine 11 different psychological six representative samples from countries (total n=3,055). Using computational modelling, precisely identified small number that increase motivation specifically charity, relative matched non-environmental cause. Overall, also observed reduced charity with lower belief change or support policies. Our results reveal individual predictors identify promote willingness protect planet.
