Correlation between daily internet handling in petabyte and carbon footprint?

The CATI method seems to have fulfilled its purpose in polling greatly in the past. Selection biases etc. have been taken care of, but a new issue may have emerged in detecting biases.

In a potential environment of distrust, voicing nonconformist views through telephone interrogation may be questionable. The randomized telephone process on the interviewer's side still leads to a high percentage shares of refusing the interrogation on the participant side.

Is there some sort of new bias research available apart from the selection bias, covering this topic? How to control the data for this?

Cherish your feedback.

Seems limited? Who were the carriers?

If possible after 2020, incorporating especially environmental market design/structure and efficiency.

Happy for links.

Banks, wanting to move with the times, are modifying their offers of financial products and services, including banking, adapting them to changing social trends and customer preferences. Modifications of banking offers mainly concerning the issue of organization, the channel of access to offers are also determined by the technological progress taking place. On the other hand, in terms of changes regarding social trends, changes in customers' worldview, customers' awareness of certain topics considered current and developing, it is the banks that are now recognizing the increasing level of customers' awareness of the climate change taking place, the ongoing process of global warming, the role of humans in these processes, potential threats to the biosphere and people in the future if these processes continue, the need to urgently carry out a green transformation of the economy, to build a green closed loop economy, a sustainable and zero-carbon economy, a sharing economy, the implementation of sustainable development goals. Accordingly, banks, on the one hand, for part of their loan offerings, give names to green loans, which they provide as investment business loans for borrowers planning to implement a green business venture involving, for example, setting up photovoltaic panels on the roof of a house, apartment building, store, business, etc, purchasing an electric or hydrogen-powered car, setting up a household sewage treatment plant, a rainwater catchment system for watering the lawn, building a composter next to the home garden, building a biogas plant producing biogas for energy needs from organic and post-agricultural waste, insulating the facade of a residential building to increase the scale of savings in energy consumption, setting up a system of intelligent blinds to optimize the temperature of the building and increase energy independence, building a system to optimize waste sorting and increase the scale of recycling, building a retention reservoir in an area threatened by long-term drought, carrying out a zoning change investment to reduce the area covered with concrete or asphalt and increase the area of greenery in the city, etc. On the other hand, companies, financial institutions, including commercial banks are modifying their missions and development strategies by adding green business issues, environmental social responsibility, sustainable development goals and fashionable green slogans. Some enterprises, companies and banks also in advertising spots, videos promoting the organization's logo present this logo in the form of an animation that suggests the changes already made in the organization, that the company, enterprise or bank has become green in terms of mission and strategy, that it pursues certain selected or all sustainability goals. But this is not always consistent with the facts. Increasingly, it is greenwashing. The scale of greenwashing is growing rapidly because there is no system for verifying and certifying business entities on the question of whether they are indeed green, whether they are pursuing sustainability goals, at what scale they are doing so in the context of their overall business operations. However, some of the banks that offer, for example, green loans actually finance with their help the green business ventures that the borrowers implement. But, after all, in a significant part of the banks that modify their offerings of banking products in this way, including loans they are still only realizing what they have been doing for many years. The only difference is that previously, before the modification of the bank's offer, the financing of the borrower's project of setting up a photovoltaic panel on the roof of the house or buying an electric car was done by the bank through the granting of an investment loan and not, as now, the granting of a green investment loan. In addition, the difference is also only that green technologies are rapidly developing and becoming cheaper. Until a dozen years ago, the purchase of an electric car or the installation of a photovoltaic panel on the roof of a residential building involved a much higher expense or was practically unaffordable for citizens with an average income level. However, much has been changing in this regard in recent years, and as a result, banks are also modifying their banking product offerings and adding the issues of ecology, green transformation and implementation of sustainable development goals to their missions and development strategies. With increasing competition among banks on the issue of green banking product offerings, it is becoming more and more common for individual banks, as part of advertising campaigns, in advertising spots and promotional videos introducing their green banking products, to also give examples of a specific type of green business venture that can be financed with, for example, a specific type of green loan or green lease. In view of the above, I give one example: One bank in Poland advertises green financing in the form of photovoltaic leasing for companies and SMEs, as well as leasing an electric car. What other similar examples of advertising green banking products and/or financing certain types of green business ventures with them are used by commercial banks?

In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:

Please answer,

I invite everyone to join the discussion,

Thank you very much,

Best wishes,

Looking for research about virtual ethics in analogy to the trolley problem with Autonomous Vehicles.

How would AGI or AI judge climate change and with which consequences, given that all information is accessible?

Happy for research on this topic.

Happy for recommendations for the best monthly climate change and biodiversity periodicals. Nature? Happy for input.

Showing the positive sides of already happening climate change mitigation strategies may lead to a better feeling, probably reinforcing positive feedback loops. Or does it foster the status quo in the sense that all is good and there is no need to change anymore?

On the other side, doomers picture doomism, which may show how important it is to promote drastic change and be prepared for new ways. May it lead on the contrary to fatalism and low energy?

What does climate anxiety recommend for each of the different Sinus Milieus? Picturing doomism or painting the bright mitigation picture. Which means are more appropriate for drastic changes instead of small steps.

Happy for research - if possible with an assessment of the overall impact.

What was unique in tech at the universities of Berkeley or Stanford in comparison to the Ivy League universities on the east coast?

Was it the liberal atmosphere of the 70s in California?

Was it defense spending from nearby sources?

How come the computer industry took off in California?

Legislative state reasons?

Geography, close to Asian markets?

Why did the ecosystem not evolve in Boston, New Jersey, Philadelphia, or Chicago?
