Abstract: | Climate activist groups have taken to the streets to draw attention to the urgency of climate change and to protest ineffective climate policies. These protests have become more extreme over time, sometimes with and sometimes without a clear and explicit link to the climate crisis. Little is known, however, about how the general public views such protests. This study has two objectives: To determine (1) whether climate related and non-climate related protests of Extinction Rebellion (XR) lead to different reactions, and (2) which antecedents are related to people's opinions on XR. |
