Data was collected using an online questionnaire, and sample consisted of (N = 233) respondents from Sweden. The result showed a small positive correlation between connectedness to nature (CNS) and the social psychological distance from climate change. Additionally, this study showed that, on average, participants perceived nature and climate change having strong connection, rather than perceived them as two separated parts, distant from each other. Further, regression analyses showed that the connectedness to nature and psychological distance influenced the perceived relationship between nature and climate change and were significant predictors. One recommendation for future research is to explore the link between CNS and social distance from climate change and the influence on pro-environmental behaviorengclimate change, social psychological distance, environmental behavior, human-nature connectionText
