Oh to be clear, I think that almost all altruistic people do not much care about the magnitude of their impact (in practice).
So I think the approach I’d suggest is to focus on altruistic people, and helping them realise that they probably do really care about the magnitude of their impact on reflection.
That’s a much larger group than the people who are already magnitude-sensitive, and I think the intervention is probably more feasible at the moment than for people who have no existing interest in altruism.
I haven’t thought much about strategy for city/national groups, but I think I agree that later in life, people are much more set on their existing path, so if any stage is to focus on people who aren’t altruistic yet, it would be university or high-school groups.
