Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Implementing long-term effective climate policy often necessitates buy-in from large segments of the population lest popular pushback occur. Conservatives in Canada remain largely opposed to most climate policies, including and especially a carbon tax, despite its small government and fiscally conservative roots. Numerous studies have shown that framing can be used to effectively shift the opinions of climate skeptics, though some of the results point to framing that has or is already being used in Canada. This study aims to identify the gap between the theoretically effective framing suggested by some research and what is actually impactful among Canadian conservatives.
