ABSTRACT

This article discusses young people’s trust or distrust in climate change science. The aim is to show how the emotional dimension of trust in climate change science plays a role for an engagement at two levels: how young people relate to climate change at large, if they worry or deny climate change, and how young people deal with ambivalence regarding behavioral advice about, for example, climate-friendly food choices. The article ends by elaborating on the need for more research about what role trust/distrust in climate change science plays in young people’s everyday climate engagement, meaning-making, and identity development.

信任还是不信任？年轻人对气候变化科学的信任及其对参与气候变化的影响

摘要

本文讨论了年轻人对气候变化科学的信任或不信任。目的是展示对气候变化科学的信任的情感层面如何在两个层面上发挥作用：年轻人如何与整个气候变化相关，如果他们担心或否认气候变化，以及年轻人如何应对矛盾情绪有关例如气候友好型食物选择的行为建议。本文最后阐述了需要进行更多的研究，以了解信任/不信任在气候变化科学中对年轻人的日常气候参与，意义创造和身份发展的作用。
