The study's still in peer review, but Yale Program on Climate Change Communication researchers apparently found that the pet peeve I wrote about more than a year ago really is important
![YPCCC researchers recently tested the effect of mock Instagram posts about extreme heat on public risk perceptions. The test included a variety of images sourced from US news reports on heat waves, including images of fun summertime activities that are often paired with stories about heat waves. [highlight] Results show that identical messages accompanied by either negative or neutral imagery increased perceived risk and strengthened beliefs that climate change is exacerbating heat waves, whereas the same messages accompanied by positive imagery did not. [/highlight] These findings underscore the importance of visual framing in climate communication.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:u45hqzk7counfbwyg5edhmvi/bafkreig2oiflcpokdlpcox2af6ppar4t5iuj2monxxrso74e2qbekpuoru)
