Abstract

Both COVID-19 pandemic and climate change require wide-scale coordination to overcome the associated challenges. We aim to investigate whether learning about stories of successful collective action from the pandemic could strengthen people’s beliefs in their abilities to work together successfully and in turn motivate people to implement climate action.
