Study by EPIC-India Director Anant Sudarshan on the effect of informational “nudges” to get households to save electricity finds peers and distrust play central roles in whether households save.
Research Summary

The U.S. emitted 5.4 billion tons of carbon in 2015, with a cost per ton of $36 (the current Social Cost of Carbon). That means the U.S. is paying $200 billion to cover the costs of all the emissions being burned. In effect, it’s a $200 billion hidden subsidy to the fossil fuel industry.
The Trump administration has argued that fossil fuels are not on an equal playing field due to “job-destroying regulations.” They’re right about one thing—the playing field is not equal, writes EPIC’s Amir Jina.
