🚨New Working Paper🚨

"Understanding the link between heat and intimate partner violence”

Together with @juditvall.bsky.social and Laura Schmitz, we study how high temperatures affect intimate partner violence (IPV) in Spain over 15 years.

Curious about our results? This is what we find ⬇️

Great article from @hannahritchie.bsky.social… and the EU ETS can fund action to reduce these non-CO2 climate impacts from aviation (and from shipping - where black carbon has a GWP of 900). It’s really good that this is getting more public attention
adriansantonja.bsky.social
"Eliminating a few percent of the world’s warming is a big deal when the costs are so small. It seems insane to me that such a cheap solution is sitting there, completely untapped."

We could reduce the climate impact of aviation by ≈50% in a few years, and nobody seems to be taking this seriously!
Eliminating contrails from flying could be incredibly cheap
Could we halve aviation's climate impact at a fraction of the cost of sustainable aviation fuels?

The regime's desire for authoritarianism is bottomless, but their capacity is not. Not even close.

They rely on bluster and memes to make up the difference. The threat is real, but less powerful than they say.

Freedom-loving Americans outnumber them by a lot. Communities can resist. Like this one:

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

Illegal and outrageous.

But, of course, nobody will be ever prosecuted as a result of this.

Someone explain how this is a cancelable offense but a Fox News host saying we should murder homeless people as policy is not?

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

A complete collapse of political norms around virtue and ethics since 2016. This celebration of cruelty and violence, and the encouragement of the public to take joy in violence against others, is very unhealthy for society.

Murder is wrong.

Pogroms are wrong.

Using a murder to incite a pogrom against a small and vulnerable group in society is wrong.

(If I’m not mistaken, an assassination was the excuse for the wave of mob but state-sanctioned violence in Russia in 1881 that gave us the term “pogrom.”)

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed.

Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing.

Both sides!

Over 125 economists signed the open letter calling on the President, Congress, and the American public to uphold the principles of Federal Reserve independence and not remove Lisa Cook without due process.

There's still time to sign! And please share.

On my first day in Rome a month ago, I randomly walked into the newly elected Pope on the street.

On my first day in New York, I randomly walk into @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social in a cafe.

I guess I run into people winning elections in 2025? 😎

Summer time is travel time 🏝️

Take a peak where our PhD students and Alumni spent some time abroad for research stays and internships in the US 🇺🇸

🏙 New York, Los Angeles or Washington, D.C.? A difficult choice but every city offers various opportunities for early career researchers in Economics.
