Information deficit model• Assumes lack of knowledge/understanding
• More information will solve
• Ignores barriers/constraints to adoption
• Can only get you so far

Six AmericasAlarmed - most engaged in the issue of global warming
• convinced it is happening, human-caused, and a serious and urgent threat• already making changes in their own lives and support an aggressive national response
Concerned - distinctly less involved in the issue than the Alarmed• convinced global warming is a serious problem, think distant iin time and space• less likely to be taking personal action
Cautious - less certain that it is happening than the Alarmed or the Concerned• Not sure if happening or human caused, but believe that global warming may be a problem• Haven’t made up their minds
Disengaged - haven’t thought much about the issue at all• don’t know much about it• most likely to say that they could easily change their minds
Doubtful – may think global warming is happening, isn’t happening, or not know• think if it is happening, it is caused by natural changes in the environment• believe it won’t harm people for many decades into the future, if at all, generally not a threat
Dismissive - actively engaged in the issue, but on the opposite end of the spectrum• believe that warming is not happening, is not a threat to either people or non-human nature• It’s a hoax

BeliefsChanging Climate vs. Climate Change
• Producers distinguished between • observable variations in the environment
• and climate change
“There’s really two questions,[is there] climate change, and then if you do think climate is changing,
does human activity have any influence on it?”
![Page 13: Know Your Audience - North Central Climate CollaborativeKnow Your Audience Audience eliefs, Attitudes, and oncerns…And What to Do About Them Amber Campbell. I am not a climate scientist](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022011909/5f67f40a65595c74fc2375c8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Concerns
• Future productivity and profitability of farming
• Greater concern over annual variability
“We don’t do our production planning based on what the climate is going to do in 50 or 100 years. We base it on what’s
going to happen in the next three to six months.”
• Governmental regulation“It’s scary to think that somebody’s going to have that
kind of control over our producers here locally.”
