"the largest uncontrolled behavioral science experiment in history" . . . this seems so true. It's on a scale the equivalent of climate change, but it's the inner climate we're messing with. The distinction between awareness and attention is a very relevant one, because it's only in the context of broader awareness we can make good decisions about where to put our attention.
"Inner climate" is a great way of putting it. It's our inner environment, which of course influences the way we perceive and interact with our outer environment. (Then again, if you're into nondual teachings, the whole "inner" and "outer" distinction starts to break down at that point...)
