Title Radicalization In The Climate Movement
Summary Climate change is a global issue that threatens humankind and the environment. The radical climate movement is an emerging movement that seeks to combat climate change through a variety of means, including social media and digital platforms. This paper focuses on the radicalization of the climate movement by using the 3Ns method - Needs, Narrative, and Network - as a structure for comprehending the process of becoming radical within its environment. It identifies key actors and organizations, strategies employed, challenges faced, and potential future trajectories. The study of climate change's path has offered significant ideas by utilizing the three-dimensional network (3Ns) method based on the need, narrative, and network (Ns). In conclusion, the current groups do not pose a threat and cannot be considered terrorist, some of them are starting to show signs of extremism, but the biggest threat stems from forces on the political fringes trying to co-opt members and narratives of the climate movement
