Biodiversity Framing May Ease Climate Policy Divide in Japan, Study Finds
Key Takeaways
- A Yokohama National University study surveyed 1,133 people in Japan on support for environmental policy.
- Respondents with hierarchical worldviews were least supportive of climate change measures.
- That negative association weakened for biodiversity measures with climate co-benefits and disappeared for stand-alone biodiversity conservation measures.
- People with stronger relational values of nature — personal and cultural attachment to the natural world — supported all three policy categories more consistently.
