loading=\"lazy\"><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>A new paper by more than 20 scientists from 13 different countries has analysed existing research on climate change, global warming, and environmental collapse \u2013 and how they connect with what men do. <\/p>\n<p>Published in Norma: International Journal for Masculinity Studies, the paper, titled \u2018Men, masculinities and the planet at the end of (M)Anthropocene\u2019, covers questions as diverse as climate denial in Canadian pipeline politics, environmental impacts of Chinese policies in the Pacific Ocean, pro-meat online influencers in Finland, and positive action by men activists in Africa, Latin America, the UK, and globally.<\/p>\n<h2>Is masculinity bad for the environment?<\/h2>\n<p>Researchers found that overall men tend to have a greater carbon footprint and greater environmental impact through consumption, especially when it comes to travel, transportation, tourism and meat eating. <\/p>\n<p>Multiple studies have highlighted the gender gap in greenhouse gas emissions. For example, a 2025 study involving 15,000 people in France found that men emit 26 per cent more pollution than women from transport and food. <\/p>\n<p>The team also warns that men tend to have \u201cless concern with climate change\u201d, are \u201cless ambitious and less active in environmental politics\u201d, and are less willing to change everyday practices to tackle the growing issue. <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Electricity prices are dropping below zero in Europe. Here\u2019s why that isn\u2019t a good thing <\/li>\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Sweden generates 99% of electricity from clean sources. So why is wind power under attack?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>A study from last year published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology found that men with higher levels of &#8220;masculinity stress&#8221; (concerns about appearing feminine) express less worry about climate change and are more likely to exhibit pro-environmental behavioural avoidance, such as avoiding eco-friendly products to maintain a, often, traditional masculine image.<\/p>\n<p>Men also tend to be more involved in owning, managing and controlling heavy, chemical, carbon-based, industrialised industries such as agriculture, along with other high environmental impact and extractive industries, and of course militarism, the paper states. <\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Negative impacts\u2019 of men<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThere is now plenty of research that shows clear negative impacts of some men\u2019s behaviour on the environment and climate,\u201d says Professor Jeff Hearn, the paper\u2019s editor and a professor of Sociology at the University of Huddersfield. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is astonishing is how this aspect does not figure in most debates and policy in a more sustainable world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Researchers add that these \u201cdamaging patterns\u201d apply especially to elite, white Eurowestern men opposed to low-income men in the global south. <\/p>\n<p>The paper also acknowledges that some men are working \u201curgently and energetically\u201d to change these tendencies. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>                                  Go to accessibility shortcuts<\/p>\n<div

behaviours have been called out for being \u201cbad for the planet\u201d.\u00a0A new paper by more than 20 scientists from 13 different countries has analysed existing research on climate change, global warming, and environmental collapse \u2013 and how they connect with what men do.\u00a0Published in Norma: International Journal for Masculinity Studies, the paper, titled \u2018Men, masculinities and the planet at the end of (M)Anthropocene\u2019, covers questions as diverse as climate denial in Canadian pipeline politics, environmental impacts of Chinese policies in the Pacific Ocean, pro-meat online influencers in Finland, and positive action by men activists in Africa, Latin America, the UK, and globally.Is masculinity bad for the environment?\u00a0Researchers found that overall men tend to have a greater carbon footprint and greater environmental impact through consumption, especially when it comes to travel, transportation, tourism and meat eating.\u00a0Multiple studies have highlighted the gender gap in greenhouse gas emissions. For example, a 2025 study involving 15,000 people in France found that men emit 26 per cent more pollution than women from transport and food.\u00a0The team also warns that men tend to have \u201cless concern with climate change\u201d, are \u201cless ambitious and less active in environmental politics\u201d, and are less willing to change everyday practices to tackle the growing issue.\u00a0A study from last year published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology found that men with higher levels of &#8220;masculinity stress&#8221; (concerns about appearing feminine) express less worry about climate change and are more likely to exhibit pro-environmental behavioural avoidance, such as avoiding eco-friendly products to maintain a, often, traditional masculine image.Men also tend to be more involved in owning, managing and controlling heavy, chemical, carbon-based, industrialised industries such as agriculture, along with other high environmental impact and extractive industries, and of course militarism, the paper states.\u00a0\u2018Negative impacts\u2019 of men\u201cThere is now plenty of research that shows clear negative impacts of some men\u2019s behaviour on the environment and climate,\u201d says Professor Jeff Hearn, the paper\u2019s editor and a professor of Sociology at the University of Huddersfield.\u00a0\u201cWhat is astonishing is how this aspect does not figure in most debates and policy in a more sustainable world.\u201dResearchers add that these \u201cdamaging patterns\u201d apply especially to elite, white Eurowestern men opposed to low-income men in the global south.\u00a0The paper also acknowledges that some men are working \u201curgently and energetically\u201d to change these tendencies.\u00a0<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/05\/06\/gender-emissions-gap-rich-white-mens-jobs-diets-and-hobbies-found-to-be-bad-for-the-planet&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/74\/83\/81\/1200x675_cmsv2_ea68fbcb-7021-52d2-8a8f-31f5dbdc5c51-9748381.jpg&#8221;] North Korea North Korea drops mention to unification with South from constitution No Comment Mexico marks 164 years since Battle of Puebla with historic reenactment Europe News Ukraine says Russia broke unilateral ceasefire with air strikes Markets Oil retreats on peace prospects as AI surge powers stock rally North Korea North Korea [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-1920159","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920159","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1920159"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920159\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1920159"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1920159"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1920159"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
