Nudging People to Save the Planet

My latest column for Skeptical Inquirer, Nudging People to Save the Planet,” is up today. It outlines five “best practices” for getting people to combat climate change.

As a small bonus, the column also includes a bit of good news in a follow-up to my May, 2015 column on the bogus therapy Facilitated Communication (FC). In that piece, I mentioned that the prestigious Institute on Disability at the University of New Hampshire promoted FC. I am happy to report that the institute has subsequently decided to sever all connections with this thoroughly discredited therapy.
