I’ve worked in cleantech + the environment for 20+ yrs and would argue that #climatechange is not a technology problem it’s a psychological and systems one. We have the tech we need but human motivation, behavior + systems are preventing widespread adoption #marsclimateimpact

Customer inertia drives the Bell business model. Given the outrageous prices + the uniformly awful service they provide, no consumer with good options would ever choose them voluntarily. Does any party have a plan to do something? Brad Vis François-Philippe Champagne (FPC) 🇨🇦 @BrianMasseMP
