Abstract

The challenges facing those communicating the potential impact of sustainability to individuals and social groups are discussed, including major factors that influence behaviour change decisions. We highlight the complexity of factors impacting on individuals' attitudes, beliefs and actual behaviour adaptation and suggest that current communication strategies could be significantly improved through greater understanding of adaptation decisions and the key barriers to, and enablers, of sustained positive behaviour change for individuals and communities. The paper concludes with recommendations for transdisciplinary research to focus on improvements to message clarity and communication and an understanding of the way messages are accessed and synthesised.
