New paper alert! "Beliefs, evidence, and climate action", with @markfreman.bsky.social, @bengroom.bsky.social and @gwagner.com, has been accepted for publication in Energy Economics.
Looking forward to holding the Department Seminar at @sussexunibusiness.bsky.social on Dec 10.
I will present the paper "Intergenerational Discounting and Inequality" (joint with @pgpiacquadio.bsky.social). A new version, with many new insights, will be ready soon!

Some light Sunday reading to fill that post-Olympic void:

Updated working paper: gwagner.com/beliefs
TL;DR: both evidence & prior beliefs matter, a lot.
