Most people are willing to make only very small changes to their lifestyle \u2013 so we need to find ways of encouraging green behaviour which can match the scale of the climate change challenge. The UK government and several scientists have suggested behavioural \u2018spillover\u2019 might be a way to achieve this.<\/p>\n<p><b>Why is this important?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>This is about how to green lifestyles in the round \u2013 moving beyond small-scale and piecemeal approaches to behaviour change. If we find spillover is easy to achieve, this is likely to be a cost-effective method for helping address climate change. Equally, it could help address other societal problems (e.g., obesity, crime) that rely on changing behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>The European Research Council has awarded \u20ac1.5m for this five-year programme of research (Award No. 336665). This significant investment will see the project conducting the first cross-cultural study of sustainable lifestyles and spillover, including much-needed experimental evidence of whether (and when) spillover really works. The work builds on the world-class research being conducted in the <a href=\"http:\/\/psych.cf.ac.uk\">School of Psychology<\/a> on behaviour change and green lifestyles.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"172\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.cardiff.ac.uk\/caspi\/files\/2019\/07\/ERC-EC-Logo-1-1024x172.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-133\" srcset=\"http:\/\/sites.cardiff.ac.uk\/caspi\/files\/2019\/07\/ERC-EC-Logo-1-1024x172.png 1024w, http:\/\/sites.cardiff.ac.uk\/caspi\/files\/2019\/07\/ERC-EC-Logo-1-300x50.png 300w, http:\/\/sites.cardiff.ac.uk\/caspi\/files\/2019\/07\/ERC-EC-Logo-1-768x129.png 768w, http:\/\/sites.cardiff.ac.uk\/caspi\/files\/2019\/07\/ERC-EC-Logo-1.png 1284w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are we doing?
