New article out in Climatic Change. As far as I know it's the first empirical research focused on people who are factoring climate change into their reproductive plans and choices. Not a happy subject, but an increasingly important one. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
We examine whether 607 Americans who were factoring climate change into their reproductive choices were more concerned about the climate impacts their children will/would experience or the carbon footprint of having children... Image
...and the way their intensely negative visions of the future... Image
...sometimes informed their reproductive plans and choices Image
We also review the literature on and around this phenomenon, discuss some of the potential implications, and describe some possibilities for future research Image
This research might be of interest to people working on reproduction, environmental sociology, environmental psychology, future studies, demography or climate mitigation. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
More to come in the future. Many thanks to everyone who helped with this research, and to everyone who took the survey! I hope the results are useful and/or interesting.
Forgot to mention: for those who don't have institutional access, a pre-copyedit version is available at academia.edu/44523110/Eco_r…
