It does so by offering a behavioral-economics analysis of prosumer-market factors. We argue that transitioning to clean energy cannot be achieved solely through top-down or bottom-up methods; rather, a symbiotic relationship between government or businesses creating opportunities and individual prosumers is key. The article puts an emphasis on the effectiveness of bottom-up factors like smart cities, NGOs, and ordinary citizens.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Full Article: <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/files\/2019\/03\/LEAL-ARCAS.pdf\">Leal-Arcas<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Full Climate Change Issue: <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/files\/2019\/03\/Climate-FINAL-XX-no.1-1.pdf\">Climate Issue XX, no. 1<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Dr. Rafael Leal-Arcas &#8220;At a time when multilateral and exclusively state-to-state action is quite unpopular, while global challenges are<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4269,"featured_media":4850,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[636,339,712,418,175,349,141,174,160,136,39,60,304],"tags":[186,169,714,715],"class_list":["post-4848","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-civil-society","category-climate-change","category-climate-issue","category-development","category-editors-pick","category-europe","category-european-union","category-featured-2","category-journal-issue","category-microfinance","category-natural-resources","category-science-and-technology","category-united-nations","tag-climate-change","tag-conflict","tag-cooperation","tag-negotiation"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4848","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4269"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4848"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4848\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4892,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4848\/revisions\/4892"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4850"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/journalofdiplomacy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
