Some personal news: last week I became a German citizen! A typically understated, bureaucratic ceremony, but it still meant a lot to me. I’m looking forward to voting in my first German election, and shouting at people when they cycle on the Bürgersteig ;)

This has been a tumultuous week in Australian climate politics! And a good example of how target setting becomes a focal point for agenda-setting on climate, as per

and my paper (below)

Bowen says cutting emissions by more than 70% ‘not achievable’ as 2035 target criticised from all sides
Albanese says 62% to 70% range represents ‘the sweet spot’ as Coalition rejects ‘economy wrecking’ target while Greens label it a ‘betrayal’

on climate institutions. Policy instruments span market-based tools (e.g. carbon pricing, ETS) and non-market approaches (e.g. standards, subsidies). Instrument design structures distributive outcomes and thus reshapes coalitional politics.

Probably exciting to apply the framework also to the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change. Especially since new EU Commissioners Hoekstra and Sefcovic explicitly referred to its advice an EU 2040 target in their parliament hearings last week
