This exhibit identifies the cultural changes that have been taking place in America, and the implications they have on the climate crisis. Cultural psychology aims to understand how culture shapes societies and identifies the underlying mechanisms that separate cultures from one another. The climate crisis is the term used to describe the drastic change in weather patterns caused by pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, that tear holes in Earth’s atmosphere. This has resulted in global warming, with the increased rise in temperature causing wildfires, droughts, hurricanes, and typhoons. Cultural changes from collectivism (orientation in which people view the self as interconnected with others) to individualism (orientation in which people view the self as autonomous) suggest the continued decline of climatic problems. Listen along to my podcast while I walk you through insightful evidence in the form of excepts and media that I used to argue my view.
