This point of departure led to a decade of innovative research on the basis of the tenet that climate and affluence influence each other's impact on culture. Evert Van de Vliert discovered survival cultures in poor countries with demanding cold or hot climates, self-expression cultures in rich countries with demanding cold or hot climates, and easygoing cultures in poor and rich countries with temperate climates. These findings have implications for the cultural consequences of global warming and local poverty. Climate protection and poverty reduction are used in combination to sketch four scenarios for shaping cultures, from which the world community has to make a principal and principled choice soon.  aEnglish. 0aHuman beingsxEffect of climate on. 0aEnvironmental psychology. 0aWealth. 0aCulture.41uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0818/2008021908.html  2ddccBK  00104070aNASSDOCbNASSDOCd2023-03-16eOverseasg0.00l0o304.25 VLI-Cp52685r2023-05-15 00:00:00v0.00w2023-05-15yBK
