Dr. Shahzeen Attari's research highlights public perceptions of energy consumption, noting a preference for curtailment over efficiency as the primary method for reduction—a view contrary to expert findings.

Her work indicates that the public tends to slightly overestimate energy costs for low-energy behaviors while significantly underestimating them for high-energy behaviors. Attari also identified factors correlating with the accuracy of these predictions.

These findings were presented at the Garrison Institute's Climate, Buildings and Behavior Symposium in May 2010.

Dr. Shahzeen Attari explores global climate change, its causes, and effects. She emphasizes the U.S. responsibility to reduce carbon emissions, contrasting supply and demand-side solutions.

Her presentation, delivered at the Garrison Institute's Climate, Buildings and Behavior Symposium in May 2010, also covers public perception of energy use, effective methods for behavioral change, and her ongoing research. Further details are available in Part 2 of her presentation.

Millionaire Doug Tompkins, founder of Esprit, purchased a vast rainforest in Southern Chile to create Pumalin Park, a significant biodiversity reserve. However, his philanthropy faces suspicion from many Chileans.

Critics, including conservative politician Jaime Orpis, view Tompkins' 100km reserve as a national security threat, linking the Argentine border to central Chile. His anti-development stance also irritates a nation seeking economic growth. Despite calls for him to leave, Tompkins remains committed to protecting the park until the Chilean government assumes its preservation.
