Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 25/06/20255/ We are currently working to refine our estimates and would love to connect with conference organizers or participants. It’s a collective effort to understand how academic travel impacts the planet – and what we can do about it. 🌱✈️📉 #ClimateScience #Academia #BehavioralMedicine #Psychologydoi.org 110
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 25/06/20254/ That’s why we need your help! 🙏 👉 Have you organized or attended a large (>1000 participants) conference in psychology or behavioral medicine between 2023–2025? 👉 Can you help us retrieve missing data or point us to other relevant events? Please reach out! 💌 002
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 25/06/20253/ We relied on publicly available data from over 20 conferences to estimate travel emissions. But there’s a catch… 🕵️♀️ Some events were hard to identify, and some organizers didn’t reply. So we might be underestimating the actual footprint. 000
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 25/06/20252/ On average, one international in-person conference visit emits 1.26 tCO2eq per researcher. That’s 55% of the 2.3 tCO2eq annual carbon budget per person that would keep us on track with the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement (Gore, 2021). 😬 123
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 25/06/20251/ 🚨 New preprint alert! We (@lisawarner.bsky.social @ajamesgreen.bsky.social and myself) estimated the carbon footprint of air travel associated with >20 international conferences (2023–2025) in psychology & behavioral medicine.

Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 17/04/2025🌎 4/ Bottom line: Feeling deeply connected to nature helps people stay committed to the environment, beyond political games. In times of polarization, nurturing ecological identity might be key to stronger climate action... 🌿 120
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 17/04/2025🔍 3/ Across two studies, we found: No environmental policy was perceived as equally likely and credible when proposed by left- or right-wing parties. People with a 💪 ecological identity supported pro-environmental policies even when they perceived them as politically opposed to their own views. 100
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 17/04/2025📚 2/ We studied how political orientation and ecological identity interact to shape support for environmental policies. ➡️ Do people reject good some policies because they come from the "wrong" party? ➡️ Can a strong ecological identity to overcome this? 100
Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 17/04/2025✏️ 1/ Excited to share our new research: "Right, left or green: what matters the most for supporting environmental policies?" We asked: Is it your politics, or how political you think a policy is, that drives your support for environmental policies? 🌱🔵🔴 141

Claudia Teran-Escobar @claudiaterane.bsky.social · 06/01/2025What did we learned? - Conferences with online options 💻 had reduced emissions ↘️ compared to only on-site conferences. - The choice of venues (e.g., cities well connected by train) can facilitate ground travel 🚂 🚌 3/n 100
