"White and educated?": Toward a (More) Diverse Climate Movement

Research output: Journal contributionsJournal articlesTransferpeer-review

Authors

Incidents like the one involving Ugandan activist Vanessa Nakate, who was cropped out of a group photo with other climate activists, are emblematic of the assumption that climate protection is primarily a concern of White people. In this article, we explore potential (social) psychological explanations for the lack of (perceived) diversity in climate activism, as well as approaches to increase diversity.
