 Immediate and root causes of climate change
 Health and social justice implications of addressing climate change
 Our roles in research, teaching, organisations, policy advocacy, and
private life.
 What does “behaviour change” mean in the climate emergency?

WHO: “Climate change
presents a fundamental threat
to human health. It affects the
physical environment as well
as all aspects of both natural
and human systems –
including social and economic
conditions and the functioning
of health systems. It is
therefore a threat multiplier,
undermining and potentially
reversing decades of health
progress.”
Climate change is a health emergency
“Cascading risks” for next 20-30 years
Quiggin et al., 2021
Extraction and use of fossil fuels; food system
Immediate causes of climate change
MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit, University of Glasgow glasgow.ac.uk/sphsu
MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit, University of Glasgow glasgow.ac.uk/sphsu
Focus on economic growth, rather than wellbeing or planetary health
Root causes of climate change
UNEP, 2024
Plant-rich diets
Active travel
Well-insulated buildings
Degrowth policies:
• Expand universal public goods and
services (health, education,
transport, housing)
• 4-day work week
• Job guarantee and living wage
• Scaling down “socially less
necessary” production (private jets,
SUVs, planned obsolescence, …)
Health and social co-benefits
Over to us
1. Research
2. Teaching
3. Organisational transformations
4. Policy advocacy
5. Private life
Opportunities for
behavioural
scientists
1/5: Addressing the emergency in research

2050: 50% more needed, but
30% yield loss
Quiggin et al., 2021
Jones, A., et al., (2023). Scoping Potential Routes to UK Civil Unrest via
the Food System: Results of a Structured Expert Elicitation. Sustainability,

UK Diet composition in comparison to Planetary Health diet (dashed line; 2017)
WWF, 2023
Research examples
 How can the mainstream transition to more plant-based diets be
facilitated?
 How is plant-based food presented, and can this be improved to
increase its appeal across diets? (Farrar, Davis)
 What is the role of food-based dietary guidelines in the protein
transition? (Sinclair)
 What are students’ emotional experiences with climate change and
implications for universities? (Hill-Harding)
 How do high SES individuals in the UK envision the transition to a
low-carbon future?
Research priorities
 Interdisciplinary
 High-impact groups and behaviours
 Not recycling
 Also behaviours that are harder to measure
 Feasibility / behavioural plasticity (Stern et al., 2023)
 Implementation – help make change happen.
 Evidence synthesis
 Let the real-world problem guide you – not theories, or careers.

• Do we talk with our students about climate
change? Or are we perpetuating a “culture of
uncare”?
• Does our teaching prepare our students for the
world they will live in?
• “How can we continue with teaching as usual
when — unless we act, swiftly and with resolve
— enormous disruption and suffering lies
ahead? Universities, which are places that
should prepare students to navigate the world
ahead, are failing to do so.” (Dablander, 2023)
• Hill-Harding et al. (2024): 588 / 869 students at
University of Glasgow want more climate
change coverage in teaching
2/5: Teaching
Hickmann et al., 2021
 Check (and ensure) your organization has
fully divested from fossil fuels.
 Create or change business travel policy.
 Where are the incentives for international air
travel (e.g., promotions criteria)?
 Develop new ways of international
conferencing
 Check (and ensure) your organization is on
track with an ambitious decarbonization plan.
 Decarbonize (energy-intense) research.
 Help your organization go plant-based.
 Bring climate and health into every decision
 Find allies, join the students, build a
movement.
3/5: Organisational transformations
www.atmosfair.de/en
www.travelandclimate.org
Ensure climate and health considerations feature in
policy on:
• Buildings, food, and transport
• Energy: phasing out fossil fuels
• Economy: question the growth imperative
• Education: for new “social imaginaries” (Stoddard et
al., 2021)
Navigating industry influence and vested interests
4/5: Policy advocacy
5/5: Private life – Talk, march, and model
Buildings, food, transport; banking.
But: not just consumer behaviour change.
Sparkman et al., 2022
Andre et al., 2024
Which behaviours?
(over)consumption of energy and materials
Whose behaviours?
High-SES individuals, policy makers, industry stakeholders
Our behaviours: in research, teaching, organisations, policy advocacy, and private life.
Create change together – create resonance, not resistance.
Behaviour change to create systems change – fuelled by knowing that a better world is
possible.
Behaviour Change in the Climate Emergency
Work out what you can contribute.
What next?

  • 9. WHO: “Climate change presents a fundamental threat to human health. It affects the physical environment as well as all aspects of both natural and human systems – including social and economic conditions and the functioning of health systems. It is therefore a threat multiplier, undermining and potentially reversing decades of health progress.” Climate change is a health emergency

Research examples  How can the mainstream transition to more plant-based diets be facilitated?  How is plant-based food presented, and can this be improved to increase its appeal across diets? (Farrar, Davis)  What is the role of food-based dietary guidelines in the protein transition? (Sinclair)  What are students’ emotional experiences with climate change and implications for universities? (Hill-Harding)  How do high SES individuals in the UK envision the transition to a low-carbon future?

Research priorities  Interdisciplinary  High-impact groups and behaviours  Not recycling  Also behaviours that are harder to measure  Feasibility / behavioural plasticity (Stern et al., 2023)  Implementation – help make change happen.  Evidence synthesis  Let the real-world problem guide you – not theories, or careers.

  • 28. • Do we talk with our students about climate change? Or are we perpetuating a “culture of uncare”? • Does our teaching prepare our students for the world they will live in? • “How can we continue with teaching as usual when — unless we act, swiftly and with resolve — enormous disruption and suffering lies ahead? Universities, which are places that should prepare students to navigate the world ahead, are failing to do so.” (Dablander, 2023) • Hill-Harding et al.

  • 30.
