I really think it's not particularly helpful to ask people: "do disruptive, non-violent actions decrease/increase your support for efforts to address climate change?"
That's the research question.
It should be answered through a combination of methods, not asked in a survey.

Two things I want to shoot into the 🌞 today (apart from the usual):
1. Ppl defending their indefensible carbon-intensive lifestyles as "convenient" or "inevitable" or "comfortable." It's like listening to alcoholics or heroin addicts, in many ways. Listen up. Perhaps ...

Our event recording is now publicly available! What role can social scientists play in climate activism? https://t.co/FF7evZEJk2

[Prof Julia Steinberger @JKSteinberger]

I wrote a thing. It's sort of personal and honestly I've been holding back on writing it for a couple of years. Do of it what you will: I wrote it in the hope (probably vain) that it might touch you. 😳

Right now, those who are not trying to change the world are succeeding in burning it.

🚨Today is Shell's AGM 🚨

In 2022's 1st quarter Shell made £7.3bn, nearly triple its margins from the same period in 2021.

The climate emergency & the cost of living crisis are leading to a bonanza for shareholders.

We need a windfall tax now 👇

I had an experience that really shook me up today [and no, it wasn't a certain politician trying to discredit my whole career because of my politics 🤣, that's not even surprising any more] so I wrote about it here 👇

Today at 4pm! Our first @SocSciRebel event

I think @antonioguterres made a powerful speech here https://t.co/hxJmyL2S1M so let's give it the attention it deserves @IPCC_CH

[Pauline von Hellermann 🌳🌴🌹🌻🌍 @PHellermann]

After decades of neoliberalism HE today is both defunct as a working environment and in no place to address climate emergency. The #UCUstrike is crucial not just for academic staff but also for fostering meaningful climate action from within HE. Join our discussion tomorrow
