Will public support for climate reforms increase as climate-related disasters make the short-term costs of inaction more salient? Leveraging variation in the timing of Californian wildfires, we evaluate how exposureto a climate-related hazard influences political behavior, rather than self-reported attitudes or behavioral intentions. We show that wildfires increased support for costly, climate-related ballot measures by 5 to 6 percentage points for those living within 5km of a recent wildfire, decaying to near zero beyond a distance of 15km. This effect is concentrated in Democratic-voting areas, and nearly zero in Republican-dominated areas. We conclude that experienced climate threats can enhance willingness-to-act but largely in places where voters are known to believe in climate change.</dcterms:description><dcterms:subject>Social Sciences</dcterms:subject><dcterms:subject>climate, wildfire, environment, sensitivity analysis</dcterms:subject><dcterms:isReferencedBy>HAZLETT, C., &amp; MILDENBERGER, M.
