Impacts of social and impact heterogeneity on social-climate outcomes
Amrita Punnavajhala, Brian Beckage, Madhur Anand +3
Regional heterogeneity in social characteristics, temperature change, and vulnerability to climate impacts is likely to influence the magnitude of anthropogenic climate change, but…
Coupled opinion-environmental dynamics in polarized and prejudiced populations
Cameron Kerr, Madhur Anand, Chris T Bauch
Public opinion on environmental issues remains polarized in many countries, posing a significant barrier to the implementation of effective policies. Behind this polarization, empi…
Space, time and altruism in pandemics and the climate emergency
Chris T. Bauch, Athira Satheesh Kumar, Kamal Jnawali +3
Climate change is a global emergency, as was the COVID-19 pandemic. Why was our collective response to COVID-19 so much stronger than our response to the climate emergency, to date…
When Simple is Enough, Binary Models Capture Social Complexity in Coupled Human-Environment Systems
Yazdan Babazadeh Maghsoodlo, Madhur Anand, Chris T. Bauch
Models of coupled human-environment systems often face a tradeoff between realism and tractability. Spectrum opinion models, where social preferences vary continuously, offer descr…
Implications of regional variations in climate change vulnerability and mitigation behaviour for social-climate dynamics
Amrita Punnavajhala, Timothy M. Lenton, Chris T. Bauch +1
How regional heterogeneity in social and cultural processes drive--and respond to--climate dynamics is little studied. Here we present a coupled social-climate model stratified acr…
Cooperation in a generalized age-structured spatial game
Paulo Victor Santos Souza, Rafael Silva, Chris T. Bauch +1
The emergence and prevalence of cooperative behavior within a group of selfish individuals remains a puzzle for \text{evolutionary game theory} precisely because it conflicts direc…
