This is a research study on actions that individuals can take to contribute to efforts to fight climate change. This study is funded by UK Research & Innovation and being conducted by Dr Viktoria Spaiser. In the 8-weeks field-experiment using the smartphone app Climate Champ, developed by Newcastle University, you are kindly asked to answer a set of questions each day. If you are in the E group (your unique user ID starts with E), then you will also see each day a message when opening the app. If your unique user ID starts with C then you are in the C group, which means you will not see the dally messages. No matter in which group you are, do try and take action. If you have any questions about the study, please get in touch with: Dr Viktoria Spaiser v.spaiser@leeds.ac.uk https://www.viktoriaspaiser.com/
