The presentation looks at the role of leadership in creating awareness and driving regarding climate change among young urban people in Vietnam. It aims to explore specifically the information, attitudes and aspirations of young Hanoians in relation to the changing climate, and how the needs of the various clusters of urban youth could be best addressed by different leadership models.
Behavioural Meetup: "Think global, act local? Public engagement with climate ...Prime Decision
Our spreaker for the February 2016 Behavioural Meetup in Bristol was Prof. Lorraine Whitemarsh from the University of Cardiff.
Despite scientific consensus about the reality and severity of climate change, the public appears to show relatively little concern about the issue and to be taking few actions to tackle it. In this talk, we will discuss what influences public perceptions and how they may be shaped by communication. Recent survey and interview data, and findings from psychological experiments will be used to expose the strong ideological and social influences on public attitudes to climate change. Research will also be presented on low-carbon lifestyles, along with insights into fostering behaviour change, including new research to achieve behavioural ‘spillover’ (i.e., when changing one behaviour leads to further behavioural changes).

Climate Change and Urban Youth - comparative study of Budapest and Hanoi youthGabor Sarlos
Climate change sceptics claim that anomalies to the climate are still within the range of natural variability. Young people are critically exposed to urban climate change risks. It is essential to build an appropriate level of climate awareness and crisis preparedness within these groups. While children and adolescents are highly vulnerable to the risks of climate change, they will be the ones playing a critical role in driving and taking part in adaptation themselves. It is essential therefore to understand clearly what their perception of climate change is and in what form can awareness raised and possible future actions prompted. This research compares ESS findings on Budapest, Hungary young people with findings of an identical research in Hanoi, Vietnam.

The Climate Institute has been conducting our annual Climate of the Nation attitudinal research since 2007. It is the longest continuous survey of community attitudes about climate change. We have charted the views of Australians about matters relating to climate change and energy policy, through the ups and downs of changing weather patterns, related natural disasters and the waxing and waning of the political landscape.
This presentation summarises this year's research, conducted by polling over 2,000 people across the country, as well as holding focus groups in Brisbane, Melbourne and Newcastle, which once again benchmarks the views of everyday Australians on these key issues. We compare and contrast them to the findings over these past years.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

BUILDING URBAN YOUTH
CLIMATE CHANGE
AWARENESS
GÁBOR SARLÓS, RMIT VIETNAM
@GABORSARLOS
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
2. SUMMARY
• URBAN YOUNG PEOPLE CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE
EXPOSED TO CLIMATE CHANGE TO A VARIED DEGREE
• IN SPITE OF HAVING ACCESS TO A WIDE RANGE OF
INFORMATION, THEY DEMONSTRATE MIXED LEVELS OF
AWARENESS
• VARIED LEVELS OF AWARENESS, ENGAGEMENT AND
MOBILISATION POTENTIAL THEY MIGTH RESPOND TO
VARIOUS LEADERSHIP INITIATIVES AND CALLS FOR
ACTION
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós
3. FACTS
‘NINETY-SEVEN PERCENT OF
CLIMATE SCIENTISTS AGREE
THAT CLIMATE-WARMING
TRENDS OVER THE PAST
CENTURY ARE VERY LIKELY
DUE TO HUMAN ACTIVITIES’
SOURCE: NASA, CLIMATE.NASA.GOV
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
4. FACTS
‘SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE FOR
WARMING OF THE CLIMATE
SYSTEM IS UNEQUIVOCAL’
SOURCE: INTERGOVERNMENTAL PANEL ON CLIMATE
CHANGE
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
5. FACTS
CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOT THE
ISSUE, IT IS HERE WHETHER
WE ADMIT OR NOT.
BUT HOW WE TACKLE IT, IS THE
REAL ISSUE.
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
6. METHODOLOGY
Hanoi
Online survey
among Hanoi (+
agglomeration)
youth
Hanoi sample: 358
age 18-39

age and gender
agglomeration sample: 113
age 18-39

8. HOW WORRIED ARE YOU ABOUT
CLIMATE CHANGE / DO YOU FEEL
PERSONAL RESPONSBILITY?
9. HOW WORRIED ARE YOU ABOUT
CLIMATE CHANGE / DO YOU FEEL
PERSONAL RESPONSBILITY?
10. KEY FINDINGS – 1-4
Hanoi
Is climate changing? Definitely yes
How much have you
thought about climate
change?
Somewhat
How concerned are you
about climate change?
Very much + not at all
Is it caused by natural
process or human activity?
Rather human
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
11. KEY FINDINGS – 5-8
Hanoi
Personal responsibility? Above average
Would many people save
on energy?
Above average
Will governments take
action?
Quite likely
Ready to limit your own
use of energy?
Above average
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
12. FURTHER FINDINGS - 1
ABOVE AVERAGE LEVEL OF AWARENESS AND INTEREST:
• 31 - 39 YEAR OLDS (HANOI)
• EMPLOYEES (HANOI)

RESPONSIBILITY:
• EMPLOYEES (HANOI)
• WOMEN (HANOI, AGGLOMERATION)
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
13. WHAT THE RESPONDENTS SAY
”LACKING AWARENESS”
“I’M NOT WORRIED, MAYBE BECAUSE I’M IN
A CITY. I DON’T FEEL THE CHANGES, BUT IN

HAZARDOUS WEATHER, I WOULD BE
WORRIED. ”
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
14. WHAT THE RESPONDENTS SAY
”LACKING MOTIVATION”
“IT IS SUPER HOT IN THE SUMMER AND FREEZING
IN THE WINTER. THE SEASONS AND WEATHER
CHANGE DRASTICALLY FROM HOT TO COLD AND
VICE VERSA”
“SOME YEARS WE DON’T EVEN HAVE WINTER,
AND SUMMERS NOWADAYS LAST FAR TOO LONG.”
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
15. WHAT THE RESPONDENTS SAY
”LACKING MOTIVATION”
“IN MY OPINION, BIG CORPORATIONS AND BUSINESSES
HAVE A BIG RESPONSIBILITY TO PLAY. MOST OF
RUBBISHES COME FROM FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS,
SHOPS, COMPANIES OR BIG SUPERMARKETS. YOU
COULD BE EASILY CRITICIZED WHEN DISPOSING OF
FOOD, DRINKS OR WRAPPERS BUT MAYBE LARGE
BUSINESSES COULD BE NOT”
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
16. WHAT THE RESPONDENTS SAY

CAN DO, I’LL DO IT.”
Leadership Challenges and Climate Change – Gábor Sarlós IRCMALS 2018
17. COMMUNICATION ISSUES
Use of
language
is critical
‘Climate
change’ vs.

warming’
