Planning your climate or environment syllabus? I like to show short videos so students & I can visualize some of the things we're talking about. Here are just some of the ones I like:
How Scientists Measure Carbon Dioxide in the Air
Ice cores
The Greenland Ice Sheet
Measuring economic damages of climate change
The social cost of carbon
Climate change and labor supply (starting at about 13:06)
Sea level rise
Carbon pricing is a real thing in the real world
Measuring methane
Environmental justice, #1
Environmental justice, #2
Environmental justice, #3
This one I don't show, because that sure would be awkward...
Ditto
And an extremely recent addition!
Climate art!

Transmission Impossible?

nber.org/papers/w31377

Decarbonization’s going to require a lot of transmission.

Our new paper overviews
1⃣ why that is
2⃣ why our transmission system is set up the way it is
3⃣ how this hurts renewables & also allocative inefficiency.

Short 🧵 Image
You might be thinking siting new transmission lines would be hard for NIMBY-type reasons.

You’d be right – but that’s just a small-ish part of it.

Examples of other issues:

Transmission challenges:

Moving from autarky to trade creates some winners & some losers (even as overall the net change is positive) – & losers will object

Cost allocation: who should be pay for new transmission lines? Diffuse set of beneficiaries ➡️ free rider problems

Enjoyed reading @ProfNoto list of ten amazing papers from the past year – some of my favorites were in there too! But we failed to write a climate/enviro/energy/resources paper that could crack his top 10. So here are some of my favorite papers from this year.🧵
1) Multiple people told me this was a fav paper this year. Theory about enviro reg assumes that the govt observes pollution. But air quality data have some serious problems, including “suppression of pollution... especially during high-pollution periods"

2) Like Zou’s, in the category of “regulation and monitoring and compliance are endogenous and we should pay attention to that when designing policy”. Auto manufacturers game fuel consumption rates, impacting consumer surplus + enviro externalities aeaweb.org/articles?id=10…
