Further robust evidence suggesting green nudges at the individual level are unlikely to make a difference. As we recently suggested, it is time to abandon the prevailing success focus and rather think of this body of evidence as pointing to the many structural constraints people are facing, and

If you think your library or institution might be willing to become a supporting member of PsyArXiv, we would be very grateful if you can reach out to psyarxiv_funding@improvingpsych.org !@kaileylawson.bsky.social, the PsyArXiv funding chair, will follow up and do the rest of the work :)
Also, some helpful context is that archiving pre-prints and creating DOIs costs $$$!

If you would like to help offset the cost of keeping this resource that you use running, but don't want to volunteer, another way to support is donating! Either personally or by getting your library involved!

We argue that behavior change interventions often suffer from a one-sided success focus. But failures may reveal structural barriers people face.
