In this special episode we interview Robert Frank, economist and
author of the new book Under the Influence: Putting Peer
Pressure to Work. He talks about using social and economic
theories to encourage more climate-conscious behavior, and proposes
structures for carbon taxes that wouldn't require painful
sacrifices from anyone.
As he says in the interview, "every little bit helps, way more than
you think."
