Abstract

Klimapolitik senkt nicht nur Emissionen, sondern kann auch positive gesundheitliche, wirtschaftliche, ökologische oder soziale Effekte haben – sogenannte Co-benefits. Wie gut belegt sind Co-benefits, wie stark werden diese in der Politik berücksichtigt, und führt die aktive Kommunikation von Co-Benefits dazu, dass Bürger:innen Klimapolitiken eher akzeptieren?
