2. Why Do We Do the Things We Do?

from Hammer It Home

Last time we looked at what carbon is and why sustainability is important. And this has got Barry thinking – now that we know all of that, why do we keep repeating the same old behaviours? Why do we do things over and over again that we know are bad for us?  That’s not a question Barry can answer, so he’s called in behavioural scientist Kim Borg from BehaviourWorks Australia to get the lowdown. BehaviourWorks is a behaviour change research unit at Monash Sustainable Development Institute in Melbourne  https://www.behaviourworksaustralia.org/So, let’s find out if it is possible to trick our brain into patterns which will benefit us AND the planet.  Hosted on Acast.
