Spurring political climate action: LSE reports on new research of over 260,000 press releases between 2010 and 2020, all from 68 political parties across nine European countries. It has revealed that extreme weather events rarely lead to increased political focus on environmental issues, with only brief attention from Green parties during such crises. Most parties prioritise recovery efforts over climate action, reflecting immediate public demands rather than long-term prevention. The findings suggest that natural disasters alone are insufficient to sustain political momentum for climate policy. This emphasises the need for more proactive advocacy from communities to help build lasting commitments that address climate change. [LSE]
