Comparative Analysis Of Information Sources For Climate Change Awareness: Investigating Press T.V And Social Media Sites

Abstract

It is often believed that human activities are the primary cause of climate change; hence, effective climate change communication is crucial for reducing this phenomenon. No comprehensive study has yet examined the impact of narratives on climate change communication, despite their shown effectiveness in domains such as health communication and politics. When the statistical distribution of weather patterns changes over extended periods of time, say, decades to millions of years, we say that there has been climate change. Droughts and more intense floods in different regions of the nation are predicted as a result of climate change, along with a rise in rainfall and a fluctuating trend in temperatures throughout the 21st century. Surface runoff from different river basins is projected to decrease. Deterioration of agricultural and forest land, water, mineral, sand, rock, and other resource depletion, environmental degradation, and public health are some of the most pressing environmental problems. Ecosystems are becoming less resilient and biodiverse. Safety of Income for the Because it has the potential to produce national variance in public awareness of a global environmental problem, the lack of effective communication on climate change by scientists and policymakers via the media has garnered a lot of attention. Finding out which forms of media are most effective in raising public awareness about climate change is another goal. This study used a random sample strategy for its research design. Researching how the media may best raise public awareness about climate change is one of its overarching goals. This research makes use of a random sampling technique. The final tally was 135 responders. A questionnaire was used for the investigation. In order to collect data from respondents on a certain issue, a questionnaire is a group of questions that has been structured and arranged in a specific way. There are two types of questionnaires used for this: closed and open ended. To develop forecasts and draw meaningful conclusions, we use statistical tools like percentage, average, ratios, and weighted averages to examine the main data acquired from the sample population via interview schedule. We then back these findings up with statistical tests
