英国已经在经历气候变化的影响，预计未来几十年这些影响的规模和严重程度将会增加。通过采取适应性行动来为影响做好准备可能会降低伤害程度。在英国，政府的适应计划旨在发展一个“气候就绪型社会”。然而，实现广泛的公众参与适应带来了重大的沟通挑战。在这里，我们的目的是了解英国居民如何使用和解释“气候变化影响”和“气候变化适应”这两个术语。我们对 22 名英国居民的采访进行了二次分析，这些居民因其不同的气候变化观点而被招募。受访者表示对预期的气候变化影响缺乏明确性，但这并不妨碍他们说他们已经在经历气候变化的影响。此外，对文化规范和价值观的威胁被认为是严重且情绪化的。适应常常与缓解混为一谈，适应的责任也存在争议。我们讨论了我们的研究结果对于发展有关气候变化适应的更有用的公众沟通的影响。
The UK is already experiencing the impacts of climate change and these are expected to increase in scale and severity in the coming decades. Preparing for impacts by undertaking adaptive actions can potentially reduce the level of harm. In the UK, the government’s adaptation program aims to develop a “climate-ready society.” However, achieving broad public engagement in adaptation presents a significant communications challenge. Here, we aimed to understand how UK residents use and interpret the terms “climate change impacts” and “climate change adaptation.” We conducted a secondary analysis of 22 interviews with UK residents, who were recruited for their diverse climate change views. The interviewees expressed a lack of clarity around expected climate change impacts, which did not prevent them from saying that they were already experiencing the effects of a changing climate. Further, threats to cultural norms and values were perceived as serious and emotionally charged. Adaptation was often conflated with mitigation, and responsibility for adaptation was contested. We discuss the implications of our findings for developing more useful public communication about climate change adaptation.
