The true potential of technology to change behavior
Technology could successfully change behaviours where decades of campaigns and legislation have failed.
With the quantified self already walking among us and the internet of things within easy reach, digital technology
is creating unprecedented opportunities to encourage, enable and empower more sustainable behaviours.
If we are to unlock the power of technology we must be more ambitious than simply digitising analogue
strategies or creating another communications channel.
The true potential of technology lies in its ability to do things that nothing else can do. In behaviour change
terms, the potential to succeed where decades of education programmes, awareness campaigns and product
innovation have failed; to make a difference where government policy and legislation has had limited impact.
Using behavioural insights, it is possible to highlight the bottlenecks, drop out points and achilles heels of
traditional behaviour change efforts — the reasons why we have failed in the past — and apply the unique
possibilities of technology to these specific challenges.
Overcoming our limitations
Luckily, the history of the human race is almost defined by its ability to invent stuff that bolsters its feeble
capabilities. That stuff is, of course, what we generically refer to as 'technology'. And in the same way that the
internal combustion engine and the light bulb allow us to overcome our relatively feeble powers of motion and
perception, so digital technology can be directed to overcoming our relatively feeble powers of reasoning, selfcontrol, motivation, self-awareness and agency—the factors that make behaviour change so difficult.
Herein lies the true potential of technology: not in the laboratory or the workshop, but in an understanding of
the behavioural dynamics that define the human condition, both generally and within the context of a specific
user-group, market segment or community.

CITIES DRIVE ANIMALS AND PLANTS TO EVOLVE
Species are adapting to urban pollution, traffic and shrinking habitats through changes in their genes
By Sharon Oosthoek - Apr 6, 201
Ever seen a raccoon open a trash can in search of leftovers? Or
walk across power lines to get from one rooftop to another? If so, you've
witnessed an animal adapting its behavior to city life. That's been going
on since people started building cities thousands of years ago. Now,
biologists are seeing signs that animals and plants are also adapting in a
more basic way to survive in cities. Their genes are changing.
Genes are segments of DNA that influence how an organism
looks and functions. An animal or plant’s DNA is like an instruction book
for how it develops and grows. Some instructions guide its reproductive
habits. Others influence the way it moves. Still others might let it withstand poison. Urban pollution, traffic
and shrinking wild spaces have been causing changes in these genetic instructions. And scientists have
been tracking more and more signs of these genetic changes.
When genes change in response to their environment, it’s called evolution. Some of those changes
may leave animals and plants better suited to their homes. It may offer new traits that increase the odds of
surviving long enough to reproduce. This means the individuals will pass on these new traits to their
offspring. Eventually, traits that had once been rare can now become common throughout a population.

FANS BEG JUSTIN BIEBER TO CANCEL HIS CONCERT IN THE WAKE OF THE MANCHESTER
ATTACKS
By Alex Riccardi - Yesterday at 4:23 pm
No one should have to live in fear but right now, in the
wake of the Manchester attacks, some teens and young adults
are scared. And you have a good reason. Bombs went off just
minutes after Ariana Grande's performance in England taking the
lives of 22 people and injuring many others. But, it's important to
remember that concert venues and staff try to do everything they
can to keep the audience members safe.
Ariana has officially postponed her "Dangerous Woman"
until at least the beginning of June, however, there's no telling if
she will cancel more shows after that. In the wake of all of this,
fans are encouraging Justin Bieber to pull out of his
performances in the U.K. The "Sorry" singer is set to headline at the British Summertime Festival on July
2nd. But, fans don't think it's a good idea.
They have been expressing their concern on social media and even starting the trend,
#nopurposetour. One fan wrote, "@scooterbraun please. We're so worried about Justin's Security.... please
please cancel Justin's purpose tour #NoPurposeTour." Another fan said, "Justin, please cancel Purpose
Tour, we want you to be safe, we want you alive! We love you! #prayersforManchester #NoPurposeTour."
This is absolutely heartbreaking. A third Belieber wrote, "#NoPurposeTourUK @justinbieber I don't want you
to die, please do something."
Justin nor his manager Scooter Braun have yet to comment on the whole thing. However, we also
must note that Scooter is Ariana's manager too. He definitely has his clients' best interest and their safety in
mind. Now that Ariana has canceled some of her upcoming shows, Scooter definitely had a role in that
decision. While fans may be scared for Justin, we have a feeling he is in good hands. If there was any
chance of a threat or immediate danger, he wouldn't do the performance. However, the music can't be
stopped because of evil in this world. Katy Perry, The Chainsmokers, and Lorde have all vowed to continue
doing their upcoming shows in the wake of this tragedy.
