You know when someone accepts man-made climate change, but then explains why we should do nothing about it?

We call these "Discourses of #ClimateDelay" & there are 12 of them. We've written a paper about it doi.org/10.1017/sus.20…

THREAD with examples from the transport sector
The first group of discourses of climate delay aims to *redirect responsibility*. It accepts that *someone* should take action to mitigate climate change, but not us, not right now, not our business / sector / town.

Wee see plenty of that in the transport sector.
Discourse of #ClimateDelay #1: Individualism.

It's when they pretend that climate action is just a question of individuals making different choices. The goal is to avoid talking about anything that goes beyond that.
