This document discusses how to encourage environmentally friendly behavior. It begins by outlining principles of decision making: people face tradeoffs; the cost of something is what you give up; rational people think at the margin and ignore sunk costs; and people respond to incentives. It then discusses how to apply these principles to environmental issues by framing tradeoffs, changing incentives through taxes or subsidies, and using nudges like information to influence choices. The key takeaway is that addressing scarcity, incentives, and rational decision making can help shift norms and protect the environment.
