Many respondents said their views could shift if they saw real, meaningful action – especially from governments and big business. Some wanted proof that Australia is taking climate change seriously. Others said action would offer hope or reduce their anxiety.
Even some sceptical respondents said coordinated, global action might persuade them
This part of the research is actually quite interesting. Its the bandwagon effect, people concluding, “everyones heading that way, must be for a reason.”
Its all the more reason to keep the pressure against the propaganda from the likes of Koch, Rhinehart or Palmer, et al.
You never know, the mass of action from others could convince these people, with their deep vested interests, of their own folly.
The scientific method and majority rule are literally incompatible. The entire purpose of the scientific method was to establish a mechanism within society for breaking from majority rule.
Thats bs. Science is just provable fact. Majority rule does not mean you can make mass rape legal. It means the majority accepts that there is a framework that will not be abandoned for clout. Science is not your enemy.
No, as a scientist it’s idiots trying to lecture me on what science is that are much closer to being an enemy. Waaaay too many people think that quoting someone with an impressive title makes them personally smart.
There is also science to help you deal with behavioral issues like this. Have you tried therapy?
