Our new paper--out in @PNASNews today--shows that wealth redistribution promotes happiness. This #MysteryExperiment began when a wealthy couple partnered with @TEDTalks to give away $2 million. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
Do you know the set times for London tonight please? 🙏 @nealmorse @NealMorseBand1 @MikePortnoy @RandyGeorgeBass @EricGillette @o2sbe it makes travelling around London much easier!
Disgraceful, inhumane, illegal and unworkable policy - but doing what was wanted by playing to the hardcore and distracting from other behaviour/failings theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/a…
The best part of any summer! 🎭

Did you know we have a castle at the heart of our campus? Overlooking the University loch, Airthrey Castle was built in 1791, and has served as everything from a grand residence to a maternity hospital in the years since. 📸 Stunning photo by @matt.ramsey.photo #IGStirUni
Ahead of #COP26, Simon McCabe from @StirBSC considers perspectives on behavioural science and the #environment, set out as part of a recent workshop in the University's #COP26 programme of activity. bit.ly/3GotsJz
bbc.co.uk/news/science-e… Great news - but we need to go further and more quickly to alleviate the effects of climate change. I resonate with the line about the 'box of shame' for vegetarian options on menus! Othering those choices doesn't help convince flexis to eat them.
Demand for railway station parking has plummetted since COVID, and so in accordance with the axioms of mainstream economic theory, car park operators have dropped the price to stimulate demand. Have they f***?
Thought this was a great take and we'll worth a read
Great article collecting throughts on behavioural science + advocacy from people in the field (academics + practice).
Do behavioural scientists need to distance themselves from the problem they are solving even if they passionately feel for it and it personally affects them? This timely article by @cintiaphinojosa and Evan Nesterak sheds light on the intersection between science and advocacy.
Confirmation again that #UBI is about more than income. We need to address and so this week discussed #basicincome and: the climate emergency, peacebuilding, Covid, poverty, biodiversity, equality and much more.
Check out this fantastic animation produced by @keiko_sono that we screened during #BIEN2021 A great introduction to #BasicIncome and #DoughnutEconomics @DoughnutEcon get a well deserved shout out 🍩 vimeo.com/589454380
Fascinating: One Swedish region got >70% of 16–17 y.o.'s vaccinated in a matter of weeks, simply by making appointments and sending out notices. sverigesradio.se/artikel/stora-…
And the #BIEN2021 Congress keeps on moving. Today I'm hosting: a book launch on 'UBI in Historical Perspective', a session on UBI + cryptocurrency and a screening of @InherentGood doccon UBI in the US. I can't wait. BTW, you can still sign up here: actionnetwork.org/events/attend-…
By the end of day two I’ve managed to actually take some moments to enjoy the Congress and revel in what an exciting space it is our team has created! Cannot understate how grateful/impressed/energised I am by the hard work of our volunteer team. Smashing it! #BIEN2021
So excited for #BIEN2021 to launch, proud to be on the hosting team with @cbinscot #UBI #basicincomeforall
Excellent!

I can't quite believe it, but tomorrow the 2021 #BasicIncome World Congress kicks off. We should have been welcoming the world to #Glasgow, but sadly #COVID19 scuppered that. And yet....we've ended up with the first ever Congress completely online and free to attend
