Towards a Carbon-Neutral Lifestyle

A study on the impact of incentives on energy consumption and recycling habits.

Nudges can be small suggestions aimed at influencing behavior in a desired way. They have been used, for example, to promote environmentally friendly habits. This study evaluates the impact of various nudges on residents’ energy consumption and recycling habits.

Over 500 tenants from different parts of Finland are participating in the study. The research supports Y-Säätiö’s goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2030.
