Citizens are *very concerned* about climate change and supportive of taking action ⬇️. Yet, governments have set strong climate goals but struggle to implement them. This large-scale international survey sheds light on what matters for increased support 2/N
#surveys are key for understanding people's views on public policies. This survey asks respondents about their characteristics & energy use, knowledge & views on climate policies. It also shows them pedagogical videos on impacts of climate change & how policies work 3/N

Eunice Chen: ODR can use synchronous (same-time) and asynchronous methods.
It's better to mediate online than to not meet at all = ODR good from an access-to-justice point of view.
ODR is useful when parties may need to be separated - e.g. domestic violence situations.

Asha Hemrajani - ODR = "improving access to justice". Online dispute resolution removes barriers with costs, time, geography. No need to travel, no need to pay for a lawyer for extensive periods of time.
