Save the date! Join us on Thursday, June 20, when this year’s case study authors will be part of a national conversation exploring how Indigenous perspectives strengthen the impact and effectiveness of climate policy. #IndigenousResearch #ClimatePolicy #cdnpoli
Low-carbon exports from 🇨🇦 are rising fast, growing at nearly 2x the rate of all other exports. Over the past 10 years, these exports have more than doubled in value, as the global energy transition has kicked into gear. 🧵👇 #cdnpoli 440megatonnes.ca/insight/canada…
🚨Climate impacts of US #LNG has been in the news, especially with the Biden admin's pause on new permits! In recent work, we developed *geospatial* lifecycle assessment model to answer this critical question: how can we assess climate impacts global LNG supply chains? 🧵
Very excited to announce this job posting at TRU. Come work with me! Tier-2 Canada Research Chair in the Economics of Climate Change, Disasters, and Inequality #climate #econtwitter #wildfire #cdnecon tru.hua.hrsmart.com/hr/ats/Posting…
New research from 440 Megatonnes shows industrial carbon pricing is the single-biggest driver of reductions between now and 2030—and climate policies in 🇨🇦 are reducing emissions. 🧵👇 #cdnpoli climateinstitute.ca/news/industria…
Agreed. 👇🏽🙌🏽⚡️
In 2006, I was on a panel of environmental leaders who voted Brian Mulroney the "Greenest Prime Minister in Canadian History." Nearly 20 years later, I believe this verdict still stands. His govt led on many fronts including fighting pollution & protecting nature #cdnpoli 1/5
Varcoe: Alberta restricts renewables being built on farmland, creates 35-kilometre buffers for 'pristine viewscapes' “All uncertainty is bad uncertainty in this instance,” says Canadian Renewable Energy Association CEO Vittoria Bellissimo. calgaryherald.com/opinion/column… #ableg #yyc

Tomorrow @GLOBE_Series #GLOBEForum 2024: panel discussion on net-zero policy with our @bernstein_micha + @LabEnergy @RachelJGuthrie @dalebeugin Panelists will discuss policy tools for balancing needs of stakeholders and achieving our net-zero goals. globeseries.com/forum/event_se…
I used to be very into this stuff, all this tweaking & nudging to change beliefs & behaviors. But the science has been pretty clear that almost none of it works, certainly at any scale. My conclusion: change policy, change infrastructure, behaviors & beliefs will follow.
If you're wondering why a focus on large facility (industrial) emissions might not be the best strategy for Alberta, I offer you the following graph.
Since a food professor is commenting today on the impact of carbon prices on farmers, it's worth re-hashing this thread. Almost all (~ 95%) of on-farm emissions are exempt from carbon pricing, not to mention exemptions from fuel excise taxes and other favourable tax policies.

Clean electricity is essential to keeping Ontario competitive. More details needed but refurbishing the Pickering plant is consistent with building out bigger, cleaner, smarter electricity in the province. #NetZero #onpoli 👇cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Good insights from @bcshaffer on the AB power kerfuffle - treat renewables as cheap “come & go” clean energy, & ensure capacity by the cheapest & most robust means - smart demand response, more transmission, storage, & gas plants that can run infrequently. theglobeandmail.com/gift/75a5fbe7e…
Is it time to rethink how Canada’s Impact Assessment Act weighs climate concerns? New on our blog: @Jon_M_Arnold argues that 🇨🇦’s regulatory review process may simply not be the best tool for enforcing Canada’s climate targets at the project level. climateinstitute.ca/time-to-rethin…

🚨Climate impacts of US #LNG has been in the news, especially with the Biden admin's pause on new permits! In recent work, we developed *geospatial* lifecycle assessment model to answer this critical question: how can we assess climate impacts global LNG supply chains? 🧵
What did we do? Geospatial LCA of LNG supply chains from the Marcellus and Permian basins to UK and China to illustrate the importance of (i) incorporating measurements into LCA, (ii) illustrate a pathway to enable global differentiated gas market. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…
@JohnVaillant Blaming oil and gas for things that people too lazy to deal with their own waste isn’t the flex you think it is bud.
Fun (for me) Fact: My research has been referenced in the Alberta Hansard (at least) Twice. Both times by the opposition party. In 2018 by then Conservative Opposition Leader Jason Kenney. Yesterday by NDP Fiscal Responsibility in Finance Critic Samir Kayande.
There are literally dozens, maybe hundreds of reports & papers on various types and stringencies of carbon pricing impacts in Canada going back to the 00s, with every conceivable permutation of price schedule, recycling method, coverage, complementary policies and US background.
Premier Smith claims that no academics studied carbon price effectiveness and indirect impacts on the economy. I found two papers after a few minutes of googling that answer her question, which I entered into the record. @GK_Fellows @dr_jen_winter
Economics is an ecosystem and I love most or perhaps even all of it. Theorists. Empiricists. Government statisticians. Ivory tower academics. In the trenches think tankers. Investment bank economists. Government economists. Tweeters. And many more I didn't mention.
@msenechal @maxfawcett I'm not saying innovation is not the solution. It IS part of the solution. The red herring is talking about it as if it doesn't involve the same choices: carbon pricing, subsidies, or regulations.
And, a good moment to point out that the PBO study cited here would also show (had they done that work using the same methods) than any other climate policy that accomplished the same emissions reductions would have a larger impact on growth and thus on income.
Feels like a good moment to repost: Canadians aren’t crazy to think that carbon pricing is hurting their pocketbooks theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
also since this got a lot of attention do your daily clicks <3 arab.org/click-to-help/…

I don't know where people get the idea that economists are naive about politics. We get it: there are lots of really dumb *and* popular ideas. That doesn't let us out of our obligation to explain why the dumb, popular idea is dumb or to work to make good ideas more popular.
Paging every economist who's ever lived: "Policy and politics are not discrete and inviolable little bubbles. It's all politics, babe."
What if, and hear me out, we combined an effort to electrify our railways with the construction of new transmission? Pairs capital, rights of way, and huge gains for the environment.
electrified rail is faster, more efficient, and cleaner than diesel locomotives. the fact that almost no rail in America is electrified is just embarrassing. we deserve world-class infrastructure.
One thing the cross-Canada carbon tax protests made super clear is that a lot of people don’t understand it. Like…at all. So let me explain how the carbon tax works — then you can all keep yelling at each other. Oh, and if you really don’t want those rebates…I’ll take em!! 🤑
Asking critics of a given policy, particularly those seeking to replace the govt whose policies they dislike, to explain what they believe is a better approach to dealing with a given problem, rather than pretending as if ignoring said problem is a solution, is good, actually.
The fact that this needs to be said is one of the reasons why I hate politics.
PSA: The economists who wrote and signed that open letter on carbon pricing are supporters of carbon pricing, not supporters of the government.
As economists, we should really reflect on how a situation in which Canadians can be duped into believing that consumption bundles are fixed, that substitution effects don't exist with compensating variations in income, and that demand curves might slope upwards has occurred.
"Unambiguously, the policies that are in place are working and have been working, and industrial carbon pricing is leading the way. It is by far the biggest contributor to emissions reductions." - @dalebeugin Period. cbc.ca/news/politics/…
