Barriers/Benefits to Using a Smart Power Bar (Strip)

Anna,
I think you will find a lot of value in this article from the Energy Center of Wisconsin: Electricity Savings Opportunities for Home Electronics and other Plug-In Devices in Minnesota Homes -- a Technical and Behavioral Field Assessment

It would be helpful, Anna, if you could share all the information that you receive.

Hi Anna,

I have written about what I think the single biggest barrier to behaviour change is, at:
http://www.smallanddeliciouslife.com/compassionate_systems/

You can also see a slidecast of me discussing these ideas, and then relating them to invasive species at:
http://www.smallanddeliciouslife.com/compassionate-systems-behaviour-change-and-invasive-species-slide-cast/

And finally there is the Greatest Hits of a couple of years back, at:
http://www.smallanddeliciouslife.com/the-top-ten-myths-of-behaviour-change/

There is a thread here on cbsm.com where I posted many, many resources, so you might want to give that a look.
