While the (quasi-) experimental methods increase credibility of causal results, there are two related concerns that make studies hard to replicate: 1. decline in reporting of null results 2. increase in use of private sector data a mini thread 🧵based on work with @trfetzer.com

I don’t know exactly what the response to this is, but I find it terrifying.

🚨 Now CCN-official 🚨 Trump issues stop-work-order to NASA chief scientist #KateCalvin, who is also co-chair of the IPCC's working group in charge of the next assessment on climate change mitigation. This is brutal, on so many levels. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/21/c...

Hey, #EconSky, I'm looking for a paper comparing the economics of climate transition to the costs of globalisation, namely : a positive impact on most agents' welfare, but a highly negative impact on a few sectors and jobs. Hence the resistance to transition measures. Does it ring a bell ?

The new US Energy Secretary Chris Wright spoke a lot about the German energy transition ("Energiewende") in his first speech to the DOE staff. But most of the numbers and facts he used to denounce it were wrong or misleading. I corrected some of them in this article: table.media/en/climate/f...

NEW: Global EV sales grew 18% year-on-year in Jan 2025 Was this due to the "devastating collapse" of 21% growth in Europe? The "stalling" 12% growth in China? Maybe the "plunging" 22% rise in US/Canada? Or "faltering" 50% rest-of-world growth…? Data: Rho Motion 🤷‍♂️

The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii. @noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

As a journal editor for a few decades I find it pleasing to watch scholars mature. They eventually realize that journal refeering is not about how many papers they can knock down but how many they can lift up.

Disadvantaged homes are 29% more likely to be destroyed by wildfires in 30 years often due to the cost of resilience upgrades like roof replacements. #LAwildfires Read more about the Stanford study: woods.stanford.edu/news/social-...

NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold. We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940. 2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

Impressive research showing the persistent overrepresentation of high-income groups in U.S. elite colleges over a century 🇺🇸 This echoes my work on French elite colleges (Grandes Écoles), where admission rates for children of alumni first dropped but have then remained ~80x higher for 80 years 🇫🇷
