By The Associated Press and The Associated Health BureauBy DAVID DOUGLAS, APEnvironment of fear is the new climate science.
Climate change is the future, and that is where science and history converge.
That’s the argument in a paper published Monday in the journal Science by an international team of climate scientists that concludes that fear is not the answer to the global warming problem.
Instead, the new study found, people’s fear of what they call climate change can be harnessed by thinking about it in a more realistic context.
In their study, researchers used data from the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and a survey of more than 3,000 people worldwide to measure a person’s level of concern about the future of climate change.
The results are stark: people who fear the future are more likely to believe that the effects of climate-related risks will be real, more likely, the researchers said.
And the more a person was concerned about the risks, the more likely he or she was to believe there are risks of climate disruption and damage.
The paper’s lead author, Matthew Koehn, an assistant professor at the University of Arizona, said he thinks fear of climate science is a good way to understand people’s views on the science.
He said it’s important to know what is motivating people to think about the science in a certain way and how they perceive it.
“I think we’ve learned a lot about how people think about climate change over time, how they view it,” Koehl said.
“So the question is, can we figure out how we can harness that information and help people to act differently and change their minds in the future?”
The authors of the study did not attribute their findings to climate change, but it was one of the first studies of its kind.
In other words, it is not about climate science per se, but the relationship between climate science and fears of the science and how that informs people’s actions.
The researchers used the same survey as the study and conducted the survey on a global scale, with participants from 10 countries.
The authors found that people who were concerned about climate-change were much more likely than people who weren’t to have a good understanding of the scientific method.
They were more likely if they believed in a global warming conspiracy theory or if they didn’t trust the scientific community.
They were more than twice as likely if the fear was linked to climate disruption.
And they were more willing to change their beliefs if it was linked with a change in their economic situation or income level.
The new study is one of several studies of climate and fear that has emerged in recent years.
Other studies have used questions about climate to measure how people respond to economic change, including an analysis that used data to predict changes in job security, economic growth and income levels.
Scientists and policy makers are grappling with a number of issues surrounding climate change and fear.
But a key issue is how the public responds to climate science in their everyday lives.
