Abstract | "Already in 2007, the reports of the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) clarified that climate change is caused by anthropogenic actions. The report also clarified that counteractions are imperative if we want to limit the consequences of climate chaiage, which are already being experienced in different parts of the world, to an extent that our society can cope with (cf. BMU/IPCC/BMBF, 2007). As urbanization rates increase worldwide, greenhouse gas emissions are steadily increasing. These developments call for new concepts of climatically sustainable urban development. Since approximately 80% of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions are currently being produced in cities, the consequences of climate change can only be considerably reduced through a massive reduction of energy consumption and increased energy efficiency. This includes massive changes to individual energy consumption behavior, towards more sustainable energy consumption, but also new concepts of energy-efficient urban planning and building, which are accepted and valued by the people. The following study was conducted as part of the sub-project 'Awareness Raising', led by the nexus Institute for Cooperation Management and Interdisciplinary Research within the research project 'Young Cities'. The research project 'Young Cities -Developing Urban Energy Efficiency in the Tehran-Karaj Region', which is funded by the program 'Future Megacities' of the Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF), focuses on the energy efficient development of New Towns, with an emphasis on the New Town Hashtgerd (see www.youngcities.org). One aim of the sub-project 'Awareness Raising' is to find out more about the attitudes of citizens in regard to environmental issues, climate change and energy consumption patterns, in order to develop awareness raising measures for climate change and energy-efficient behavior."
