Scientists highlight that actions that address environmental protection and climate change can also help with reducing infectious disease threats. Results using data from a national sample survey in New Zealand indicate that perceptions of co-benefits of actions to address environmental protection that also protect against infectious disease outbreaks such as the coronavirus is associated with policy support and political engagement. This association was partly mediated through perceived collective efficacy. Local councils with higher level of community collective efficacy were more likely to declare climate emergency. Communication about potential co-benefits is likely to shape public engagement and enact policy change.

与公众支持气候友好型 COVID-19 复苏政策和政治活动相关的共同利益

科学家们强调，应对环境保护和气候变化的行动也有助于减少传染病威胁。使用新西兰全国抽样调查数据得出的结果表明，对解决环境保护的行动的共同利益的看法也与政策支持和政治参与有关。这种关联部分是通过感知的集体效能来调节的。具有较高社区集体效能的地方议会更有可能宣布气候紧急情况。关于潜在共同利益的沟通可能会影响公众参与并制定政策变革。
