Resumo(s)
Em 2019 as alterações climáticas foram consideradas uma emergência global pela gravidade que representam para o mundo, chamando atenção para o baixo engajamento da sociedade em responder à crise. Fatores geográficos e psicológicos, dentre outros, desempenham um papel importante na formação e consciencialização acerca das alterações climáticas a nível individual. Nesse contexto, o objetivo da investigação foi identificar os preditores da percepção das alterações climáticas e do risco climático dos universitários portugueses e brasileiros, tendo como variáveis a Identidade de Lugar, os Traços de Resiliência e os Traços de Personalidade. Abordamos a pesquisa na perspectiva da Geografia Psicológica, pela qual a realidade geográfica pode ser compreendida numa perspectiva psicológica quando se tem o entendimento de que as formas e conteúdos geográficos podem ser condicionados pelos traços subjetivos dos individuo Utilizamos a psicometria como técnica e o software SPSS para o tratamento dos dados estatísticos. Os resultados apontam o Aumento da Temperatura como um forte preditor da percepção das alterações climáticas e dasua gravidade, seguidos pelos Traços de Resiliência (Assertividade) e os traços de Personalidade (Abertura a Novas Experiências). A Identidade de Lugar contribui para o desenvolvimento dos Traços de Resiliência, pelo que pode ser utilizada como ferramenta de gestão para a adaptação frente às alterações climáticas. Por fim, concluímos a necessidade do desenvolvimento de políticas públicas frente à crise climática, personalizadas ao contexto de cada país, região, comunidade e indivíduo. Como estratégia para promover lugares socioespacialmente resilientes, conscientes e engajados frente à emergência climática, propomos investimentos na alfabetização climática pautada na perspectiva da educação personalizada e comunitária.
In 2019, climate change was considered a global emergency due to the gravity it represents to the world, highlighting the low engagement of society in responding to the crisis. Geographical and psychological factors, among others, play an important role in developing awareness of climate change at an individual level. In this context, the investigation aimed at identifying the predictors of climate change perception as well as climate risk in Portuguese and Brazilian university students, having as variables Place Identity, Resilience Traits and Personality Traits. The research was developted in the perspective of Psychological Geography, through which the geographical reality can be understood in a psychological perspective when it is understandood that the geographic forms and contents can be conditioned by the subjective traits of individuals. We use psychometry as a technique and the SPSS software for the treatment of statistical data. The results indicate the Increase of Temperature as a strong predictor of the perception of climate change and its severity, followed by Resilience Traits (Assertiveness) and Personality traits (Openness to New Experiences). Place Identity contributes to the development of Resilience Traits, so it can be used as a management tool for adapting to climate change. Finally, we conclude the need to develop public policies in the face of the climate crisis, customized to the unique context of each country, region, community and individual. As a strategy to promote socio-spatially resilient, aware and engaged places in the face of climate emergencies, we propose investments in climate literacy and that it should be guided by the perspective of personalized and community education.
