A recent survey of 5,137 Americans reveals that familiar terms like "climate change" and "global warming" are more effective in raising concern and prompting action than newer phrases such as "climate crisis" or "climate justice". #climatechange #climate theconversation.com/if-you-want-...

If you want Americans to pay attention to climate change, just call it climate change
Phrases like ‘climate crisis,’ ‘climate emergency’ or ‘climate justice’ might seem to escalate the urgency, but a large survey shows they don’t help and may actually hurt.
