Bye Bye, X!
This platform has increasingly become a space for harmful content and discourse, which does not align with our values. That's why we decided to withdraw from X. We’ll continue to share news on LinkedIn and Bsky (@ecologicalEcon.bsky.social) – see you there!

Here my two cents on #challenges and the much needed #opportunities for #climate #finance ahead of #COP29 with Voice of America @USE_UU @wu_vienna @EcologicalEcon
What should you watch out for at #COP29 this year? Check out my explainer with @VOANews in which I talked to @IreMonasterolo and @HurriKaroliina on how #climatefinance is to take center stage in Baku this year.

Yesterday, the GRU-Team visited the facilities of an Austrian e-waste recycling company.
We saw how e-waste & cars are dismantled, shredded, how their plastic components are recycled, and got insights into the opportunities and challenges of implementing the #CircularEconomy.

Climate scenarios used in central bank stress tests contain a major gap, according to this research paper from @StefBattiston and @IreMonasterolo for @INSPIREgreenfin.
The paper “Enhanced Scenarios for Climate Stress-tests” says that current scenarios fail to account for feedback effects from the financial system, investors’ expectations, and policy credibility in realising the scenarios.
To address this, the authors propose a new generation of enhanced climate scenarios which capture the “endogeneity of climate risk”.

New paper alert:
Sociodemographic disparities in ambient particulate matter exposure in Austria
Joint work with Klara Zwickl and Xenia Milkin (#WU).
In this paper we use a high-resolution spatial #emissions #EEA grid that is aggregated up to municipalities (#Gemeinde) to:
(1) show regions that are above the WHO PM limits both in terms of absolute and population-weighted exposures, and
(2) highlight socioeconomic disparities that exist in this exposure in terms of income groups, low-skill workers, and share of foreigners.
This paper is part of a series of papers from an #FWF project that aims to evaluate various forms of exposure inequality in the EU.
This paper is freely accessible for the next 50 days here:
