Why it’s not easy being green
Most of us know that environmental change is an issue and that our choices affect it… so why aren’t we doing all we should to fix things? David Biello, associate online editor for Scientific American, and Benjamin Ho, behavioral economist at Cornell University, discuss why humans aren’t more ecologically responsible, and how we can convince (or trick, even) ourselves to change our behaviors for the common good.
