Informing the Climate Activist’s Dilemma: How Issue Bundling in Moderate and Disruptive Protests and Shape Attitudes Toward the Climate Movement in Denmark
Abstract
Using a survey experiment, we aim to examine how different forms of climate protests and the use of issue expansion influence public attitudes toward the climate movement. Respondents will be exposed to a news-article treatment in which the only variations across the experimental groups are (1) the type of climate protest described and (2) whether pro-Palestinian symbols are present. Overall we expect that more extreme forms of climate protest and the presence of pro-Palestinian symbols will reduce public support for the climate movement.
