Let's Give A Damn

Robert Frank is the Henrietta Johnson Louis Professor of Management and a Professor of Economics at the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University. He, also, contributes to the "Economic View" column in The New York Times. Additionally, he has written over a dozen books including the book we will discuss today — Under The Influence: Putting Peer Pressure to Work. In this incredible and though-provoking book, Frank argues that we can and should use positive peer pressure to turn our friends, family, neighbors, and those in our sphere of influence into people who care about the climate crisis and will act to change the direction we are headed. You need to get this book!
