Bu makalenin birincil amacı Türkiye’deki sivil çevreci girişimlerin pratiklerini gündelik direnişin kavramsal çerçevesinden hareketle değerlendirmektir. Bunu yaparken bu makale, direniş çalışmalarında sistematik bir gündelik direniş için kullanılan; (1) belirli bir iktidar yapılanmasıyla ilişkili gündelik direnişin repertuarları, (2) aktörlerin ilişkileri, (3) gündelik direnişin zamansallığı ve (4) gündelik direnişin uzamsallığı düzeylerinden oluşan bir çerçeveden yararlanmaktadır. Çalışmanın verileri, 16 çevreci sivil girişimden, derinlemesine görüşmeler yoluyla elde edilmiş olup nitel veri analiz yazılımı olan ATLAS.ti kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçları, çalışmaya katılan bireylerin, iklim değişikliğini azaltmaya yönelik gündelik eylemlerinin, gündelik direniş olarak düşünülebileceğini ortaya koymaktadır çünkü analiz sürecinde kullanılan dörtlü çerçevenin tüm düzeylerinde ortak olan gerçek, bireylerin, var olan sosyo-ekonomik kodlarla ters düşen ve onlara direnen alternatif bir toplumsal gerçeklik önermeyi ve inşa etmeyi amaç edindikleridir. Bulgulardan hareketle, aktörlerin, iklim değişikliğini azaltmaya yönelik söz konusu gündelik direniş pratiklerinin, salt bir direniş biçimi olarak görülmemesi; ayrıca iklim değişikliği kriziyle ilintili politik sürece katkı olarak değerlendirilmesi gerektiği de ileri sürülebilir.

The primary aim of this article is to assess the practices of civil environmental initiatives in Türkiye from the conceptual framework of everyday resistance. By doing this, the article draws on a framework used for a systemic analysis of everyday resistance in resistance studies, which consists of (1) repertoires of everyday resistance in relation to particular configuration of power; (2) relations of actors, (3) the temporalization of everyday resistance; and (4) the spatialization of everyday resistance. The data of the study were obtained from 16 pro-environmental civil initiatives through in-depth interviews and analyzed using qualitative data analysis software ATLAS.ti. The results of the study reveal that the everyday practices of the participants in the study to mitigate climate change can be considered as everyday resistance, since at all levels of the quadruple framework used in the analysis process, the common fact is that they seek to suggest and construct an alternative social reality that contrasts with and resists to the existing socio-economic codes. Based on the findings, it can also be concluded that these everyday practices of the resistance actors to mitigate climate change should be understood not only as a form of resistance, but also as contributions to the political process concerning climate change crisis.
