The political impact of extreme weather depends a lot on how we talk about that weather.

If journalists, elected officials, and other trusted messengers explicitly link extreme weather to climate change, then "climate change worry" and "support for government action" rises.

#EndClimateSilence
What did the researchers do and find? We conducted an online messaging experiment with over 10,000 adults in India, the UK, and the USA. We measured the impact of information about different types of extreme weather (flooding versus heat waves) on beliefs that climate change made extreme weather in 2023 more likely. We also tested the effectiveness of different numerical frames, namely times versus percentages. We found that just a short, simple phrase that links climate change to extreme weather can significantly impact even distant outcomes like climate change worry and support for government action. However, there was no difference in the impact of numerical framing nor type of extreme weather event. Indeed, there are spillover effects of attribution messages from one type of extreme weather to the other - attributing increased flooding to climate change affects beliefs about heat waves, and vice versa. What do these findings mean? Our findings suggest that, rather than focusing resources on testing different wording and frames, it may be more important that people simply hear about the links between climate change and extreme weather. However, we acknowledge that we only vary one framing (the framing of magnitude) and it is possible that other framing variations would produce greater heterogeneity in treatment effects.

While astronomical fall starts Tues, wildfire is still an issue after an extended dry period over SW BC. A new #BCwildfire known as the Mount Jack Wildfire, started on Sunday on S Vancouver Island. This evening it is visible from Pt Angeles, WA!

If anyone wonders why people in BC are so passionate about climate resilience and ending oil dependency, this is why.
