Thank you to all my teachers who made me challenge social norms and learn from observation. @KanMukherjee @iimb_official partnered for this specific proposal on reduction in energy use through application of status quo bias.

@ProfCongKAR @TowardsLiberti @MansoorKhanINC I feel that the bigger issue is lack of public transport close to people's places. Yes, this can help but adding mid-size buses to offices and apartments is more crucial.

@HariniNagendra @azimpremjiuniv @ClimateResearch @MundoliSeema Glad to see a mention of humans and behaviour. After all, it is all human made problems. Humans have the capabilities and opportunity to address ecological environmental issues; no other species is blessed this way. But we often lack motivation in our behaviour to change.

@deepak_malghan The world is complex and change is perhaps one of the most complex topics today. Herbert Simon said "You do not change people’s minds by defeating them with logic." If we combine Simon and Chomsky, we might have some sense of why telling truth is unlikley to work in most cases.

@MundoliSeema It says 9th Feb, Tuesday. Is it happening today or on the coming Tuesday Feb 13th?

@aditimukherji A related point is made by this article. The wasted GDP is often created by the affluent class's wasteful tastes and practices.

Take action to call for Hoang Thi Minh Hong’s release and stand in solidarity with all climate defenders.

@meerak Prestige is another reason why people don't take public transport. They seem to take their car/SUV/2-wheeler as a proud symbol of themsleves. Time take is one big reason, of course. And even the (marginal) cost .

@shashwatdc @jccardenas1965 @HariniNagendra @azimpremjiuniv I find it hard to keep up with videos; text preferred. And also better for climate change mitigation (and our instincts or habits that promote video over text).

@VasudevJNU @deepak_malghan @pramit_b @roadscholarz This part is easy to understand. Each line is a type of progress. So progress is 2 or 3 % more is the claim.

@Nature @CPR_Climate @NavrozDubash Should we stay quiet on high emissions by affluent people and institutitions around the world, even in developing countries? If so, are we not complict in the crime as we adopt the same aspirations of production and same wasteful lifestyles that the developed countries created?

@BBPVedike @DKShivakumar @rajeevgowda @ChristinMP_ @belliethomas @CitizenKamran @Citizens4Sankey @deepikacariappa @ever_pessimist @FriendsofBMTC @tarauk @WFRising @shaheenshasa How about making cars expensive to drive in BLR or KA, say though monthly or annual road tax or other levies? Add smaller buses to expand public transport to every road? @BBMPCOMM @BMTC_BENGALURU

@leofsaldanha Do we understand how this way of serving compares with good old steel plates, stritctly for the environment (ignoring other factors for the moment)? Consider how wet waste is processed (or not), trees needed for such cutlery, the extra transport, emissions during decompose...

@NandanNilekani One underlying key aspect that is important but missing is the environmental or resource footprint of #DigitalPublicInfrastructure. While it may be much lower than alternatives (i.e., brick n mortar), can we also tell how much is it and strive to lower it? @NandanNilekani Thanks!

@malirah @bellandurutrfps @DCPSouthTrBCP @BlrCityPolice @blrcitytraffic @jointcptraffic @CPBlr @PCMohanMP We also need buses to come to these areas with massive population - Adarsh Palm Retreat and Ecoworld. Without consolidation of car traffic into buses, roads would remain insufficient in this growing and congested place. @BMTC_BENGALURU @BBMPCOMM Please add small buses, at least.
