Oups Vendredi ! Je suis trop impatiente ;)

It is good to see leading economists, including 10 Nobel Laureates, speaking out against Israel's starvation and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians in Gaza. 🙏

I've been working on a new tool, Refine, to make scholars more productive. If you're interested in being among the very first to try the beta, please read on.

Refine leverages the best current AI models to draw your attention to potential errors and clarity issues in research paper drafts.

TOUT VA BIEN! #canicule
Il est 10h du matin et il fait 34°C à Perpignan, ressenti de 38°C, et 34°C à Montpellier, ressenti de 39°C.
Revenir sur les politiques environnementales est suicidaire.
Imaginer lucidement l'adaptation revient a choisir dès ajd ce que l'on va garder & ce qu'on va abandonner.

récurrence affolante des très fortes chaleurs en juin 2025. #Nîmes Courbessac aura enregistré 12 jours >= 35 °C au cours de ce mois, un nombre absolument sans précédent en juin (8 jours en 2003, 1 en 1976), et dépassant n'importe quel mois de juillet du 20ème siècle à Nîmes (début des mesures 1921)!

This graph from @economist.com reveals a major pivot in #economics toward data and empirical work, with theory and modeling taking a back seat. The underlying data is open source at www.causal.claims

Do you believe that academics should be free to decide what they research and how they teach, without interference?

Le niveau de la mer monte. Les risques côtiers augmentent. La nécessité de prendre des décisions et des mesures intelligentes, en toute connaissance de cause est grande.

Mais ça y est, la plateforme CoCliCo est en ligne et va pouvoir répondre à ce besoin urgent.

Thrilled to share my new paper in @jeem-econ.bsky.social
, coauthored with Raphaël Soubeyran:

We explore how differentiating agglomeration bonus *within* vs. *between* landholdings can make biodiversity policies on habitat agglomeration more effective.

Cette plateforme doit disparaître.

Pesticides néonicotinoïdes : l'Assemblée nationale fait un pas vers leur retour. « Une attaque frontale contre la science, contre la santé et contre la souveraineté », dénonce la députée @delphinebatho.bsky.social (par @sfoucart.bsky.social @mathigerard.bsky.social) ⤵️

It was an honor for me to serve as one of the authors of the economics chapter alongside a distinguished and professional group of experts.

I cannot overstate how serious and non partisan this group was.

Why Trump will lose his trade war

Hi #econsky and conservation friends, if you need a hopeful story, the RCT we completed in eastern DRC might be for you. It is about a viable path to clean (electric) cooking, human development, and the protection of endangered wildlife, including mountain gorillas 🧵🧪 tinyurl.com/4jccmcaw

BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency.

Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

"Many of the world’s largest shipping nations decided on Friday to impose a minimum tax of $100 for every ton of carbon dioxide emitted by ships...effectively the first global tax on greenhouse gas emissions."

Nominate, nominate, nominate!

This, from my colleague
Brent Neiman says it all.

Trump admin used the results from his paper to justify tariff rates. Except they used the completely wrong number.

Staggering 🤯

New chart just dropped.

This chart seems to suggest that something is going wrong in the United States, specifically.
