摘要

摘要科学研究表明,随着时间的推移,全球变暖正在变得不可逆转,这在很大程度上是人类引起的现象。印度是世界上三大二氧化碳排放国之一。然而,印度的普通公众并不知道究竟是什么导致了人为(人为)气候变化。本研究旨在评估学生对气候变化的认识水平和采取缓解行动的意愿(N = 657)在特里普拉接受高等教育,特里普拉是印度东北部的一个小邦,三面与孟加拉国接壤。此外,该研究还试图得出媒体使用水平与气候变化意识水平以及气候变化意识程度与采取气候变化缓解行动的意愿水平之间是否存在相关性。结果表明,特里普拉的高等教育学生具有较高的气候变化意识,与气候变化相关的信息主要来源于互联网、电视和报纸。科学家是最值得信赖的气候变化相关信息来源,其次是大众媒体。研究结果还表明,学生们愿意采取缓解气候变化的行动,即使这会让他们付出额外的代价。愿意(7.6%)和非常愿意(65.4%)接受气候变化缓解行动的学生占调查总受访者的70%以上。该文件的结论是,当媒体是传播信息的关键行为者时,采取减缓气候变化行动的意愿水平与对气候变化后果的认识水平显著相关;然而,对气候变化解决方案的理解程度与对气候变化原因的认识程度并不相关。

Awareness, media, and mitigation actions for climate change: a study among the students of higher education in Tripura
Abstract Scientific research has revealed that global warming is getting irreversible with the passage of time and it is largely a human-induced phenomenon. India is one of the top three emitters of carbon dioxide in the world. However, the general public in India is unaware of what actually causes anthropogenic (human-induced) climate change. This study is undertaken to assess the level of climate change awareness and willingness to adopt mitigation actions by the students (N = 657) of higher education in Tripura, a small state in North East India, bordering Bangladesh on three sides. In addition, the study also attempts to draw whether there exist any correlations between the level of media usage with the level of climate change awareness and the level of climate change awareness with the level of willingness to adopt climate change mitigation actions. The results show that students of higher education in Tripura have a high level of climate change awareness, and the primary sources for climate change-related information are the Internet, TV, and newspapers. The scientists were the most trusted sources of climate change-related information followed by the mass media. The findings also establish that the students are willing to adopt climate change mitigation actions, even if it costs them something extra. The students who are willing (7.6%) and extremely willing (65.4%) to embrace climate change mitigation actions constituted more than 70% of the total respondents of the survey. The paper concludes that the level of willingness to adopt climate change mitigation actions was found to be significantly correlated with the level of awareness of the consequences of climate change when media are key actors in the dissemination of information; however, the level of understanding about solutions for climate change is not correlated with the level of awareness about the causes of climate change.
