Lot Information

Lot 1

ClimateXChange wishes to commission a study of how behaviours with a positive or negative impact on climate change mitigation and/or adaptation are changing following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study will help us respond to that advice by better understanding how behaviours are changing, exploring people's attitudes towards the behaviour changes they have experienced, and analysing the factors influencing whether these changes are sustained after government restrictions are eased. These insights will help inform the Scottish Government's approach to leading the shift towards positive climate change behaviours in both the recovery from the pandemic and ongoing work to respond to the global climate emergency.
