Psychology can make a significant contribution to limiting the magnitude of climate change by improving understanding of human behaviors that drive climate change and human reactions to climate-related technologies and policies, and by turning that understanding into effective interventions. This article develops a framework for psychological contributions, summarizes what psychology has learned, and sets out an agenda for making additional contributions. It emphasizes that the greatest potential for contributions from psychology comes not from direct application of psychological concepts but from integrating psychological knowledge and methods with knowledge from other fields of science and technology.
心理学可以通过增进对驱动气候变化的人类行为以及人类对与气候相关的技术和政策的反应的理解，并将这种理解转化为有效的干预措施，为限制气候变化的规模做出重大贡献。本文构建了心理学贡献的框架，总结了心理学已经取得的认识，并提出了进一步做出贡献的议程。它强调，心理学最大的潜在贡献不是来自直接应用心理学概念，而是来自将心理学知识和方法与来自其他科学和技术领域的知识相结合。
