We are excited to share with you our latest article, "Does it matter if you "believe" in climate change? Not for coastal home vulnerability," which has just been published in Climatic Change.
Using data from the 2017 Coastal Homeowner Survey of 662 coastal North Carolinians, we test the hypothesis that climate change knowledge and attitudes affect the structural vulnerability of home features and homeowner actions and intentions to reduce vulnerability. We find that climate change knowledge and attitudes have no significant effect on a home's vulnerability or owner's actions or stated intentions to reduce vulnerability in New Hanover County, NC, one of the most frequently exposed US coastal communities to hurricanes and the impacts of sea level rise.
