Behavioral change succeeds more readily through replacement than prohibition

Evidence

Secretary of State John Kerry commented on the deficiencies of the remedy: “We are still on a course leading to tragedy” (Davenport, 2014d). Weaning the top polluters from fossil fuels will not be easy. However, change comes more easily through replacement than through prohibition. We are now at the dawning of a transformative change in energy production (Gillis, 2014a). Renewable energy, as generated through wind and sun power, is on the rise and costs are dropping sharply. As we have seen, Germany has become the model for this nascent transformative change. — Albert Bandura, Moral Disengagement, 2940
