Includes descriptive metadata provided by producer in MP3 file: "InterVU - Podcasts - Listen: Vanderbilt professors find that household efforts are key to climate change efforts - Vanderbilt professors Jonathan Gilligan and Michael Vandenbergh are among researchers who have identified 17 activities that individual households can do to significantly reduce overall carbon emissions. The steps are explained in the recently published article 'Household actions can provide a behavioral wedge to rapidly reduce U.S. carbon emissions.'" 32 to 42 per cent of emissions are due to individual behavior. Examples of changes include insulating your home, not idling cars or driving aggressively, reducing water heater temperature to 120 degrees, etc. See Behavioralwedge.msu.edu for the text of the paper. |
