I have been observing the distinct pattern of using the elevators in the department building. People from developing countries are the heavy users. Many of them like to take the elevators down from 4th floor to 2nd floor. On the other hand, people from developed countries tend to shun the elevators. I have noticed that a few professors even carry their bikes up the stairs. What does that tell you? I would conclude that we need to get everyone rich before we talk about the environment and all that. Or maybe people from the developed world should volunteer to carry those poor graduate students up and down the building.
