As activism including climate strikes have become a common occurrence around the world, it is important to consider the growth in climate change‐focused activism and participation in social movements as a specific type of civic engagement. Although studies have analyzed climate activism and the climate movement, there is limited research that integrates it into the broader literature on civic engagement and which considers how these forms of engagement are related to specific climate outcomes. Here, we take a first step in understanding the material outcomes of these efforts. Specifically, we provide an overview of climate‐related activism as a form of civic engagement, paying particular attention to the targets of this activism and its environmental outcomes in terms of greenhouse gas emissions reductions. Then, we focus on one of the most common tactics to gain momentum in recent years: the school strike, which has mobilized a growing number of participants around the world. We discuss how the Coronavirus pandemic has changed the climate movement with much activism moving online. We conclude by discussing the overall state of the knowledge about the outcomes of climate activism, as well as highlighting the need for careful research to measure its effects across scale.

气候行动主义及其影响

随着包括气候罢工在内的激进主义在世界范围内已成为一种普遍现象,将以气候变化为重点的激进主义和参与社会运动的增长作为一种特定的公民参与形式考虑是很重要的。尽管研究已经分析了气候行动主义和气候运动,但是很少有研究将其纳入关于公民参与的更广泛的文献中,并考虑了这些参与形式如何与特定的气候结果相关。在这里,我们迈出了了解这些努力的实质成果的第一步。具体而言,我们概述了与气候有关的行动主义作为公民参与的一种形式,并特别关注了这种行动主义的目标及其在减少温室气体排放方面的环境结果。然后,我们关注的是近年来获得动力的最常见策略之一:学校罢工,它已动员了全球越来越多的参与者。我们讨论了冠状病毒大流行如何通过在线上的许多行动主义改变了气候运动。最后,我们通过讨论有关气候行动主义成果的知识的总体状况,并强调需要进行认真研究以衡量其在整个规模上的影响。
