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 @jacobedenhofer.bsky.social, @chflachsland.bsky.social and my paper (below) www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Welcome to the Hertie School @climatemorgan.bsky.social!

We have new working paper with Alice Xu and Audrey Sacks, entitled "The Politics of Climate Change in the Developing World," which we prepared for ARPS. Comments are welcome. guygrossman.com/assets/pdf/2...

Our updated working paper with @jacobedenhofer.bsky.social and @chflachsland.bsky.social - Introducing and applying the Climate Institutions Analysis Framework (CIAF) - is now available ⬇️ all feedback welcome!

Welcome to SHIFT KEY Summer School. @jessejenkins.bsky.social and @robinsonmeyer.bsky.social are walking you through the basics of energy and the power grid in this special miniseries. Listen to the first episode below, or wherever you get your podcasts ⬇️

work with @claudiazwar.bsky.social 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. bsky.app/profile/clau...

Already becoming a lodestar for my thinking on climate politics research! Great to see this WP out.

Excited to be in Madrid this week for EPSA! At 9:30 on Saturday I’ll present my paper on the electoral costs of climate ambition alongside some other great projects ⬇️

🚨Global public action (climate!) is most effective when countries do it together yet we're in a period of IO backlash rooted in left-behind places Does it mean all left-behind regions hate IOs the same? @patrickbayer.bsky.social & I have a paper accepted @bjpols.bsky.social abt this🧵 osf.io/rtymv

Great policy brief from colleagues in Ariadne about governance challenges in the German net zero transition and options for reform 👇

Fantastic opportunity at our Centre to work for a year on your own climate politics research!

Great to be at Princeton on Friday for the Climate Pipeline Project workshop, presenting my paper on prospective voting on climate policy

📣 Job alert 📣 My team is looking for a Research Associate or Postdoctoral Researcher - Multi-level Climate Governance in Germany in the @ariadneprojekt.bsky.social project. hertie-school.dvinci-easy.com/en/p/en/jobs...

I'm delighted to be spending the Winter Term visiting the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and Environment @granthamlse.bsky.social. If you're in London, please drop me a line - I'll be here until the end of March.

Analysis of the electoral impact of German legislation aiming to phase out fossil-fueled heating systems. Main finding: Material costs of the policy, proxied by the characteristics of the local building stock, led to relative gains for the right-wing populist party. By @mkalkuhl.bsky.social et al.

The world may feel like a dark place right now, but at least the sun is shining on my short visit at the Sydney Environment Institute. Thank you very much @seisydney.bsky.social for having me!

Scheint so, als wäre unser (@chflachsland.bsky.social und @claudiazwar.bsky.social) @verfassungsblog.de Artikel zur KSG-Novelle wieder aktuell. Darin argumentieren wir ua, dass die Wirksamkeit von Sektorzielen überschätzt wird. Vgl Screenshot im nächsten Post. verfassungsblog.de/novelle-bund...

We are excited to share our working paper: Introducing and applying the Climate Institutions Analysis Framework (CIAF): A comparative analysis of climate institutions in Germany, the United Kingdom, Sweden, and Australia using the CIAF tinyurl.com/2enbnt29 (1/5)

Comparison of climate governance in 🇩🇪 🇬🇧 🇸🇪 🇦🇺 : 1) what are climate institutions? 2) what effects do they have on climate policymaking? 3) what lessons can be drawn? New Ariadne-Report with many nice overview tables ariadneprojekt.de/media/2023/1... @claudiazwar.bsky.social @chflachsland.bsky.social

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

Wie kann die #Klimagovernance in 🇩🇪 gestärkt werden? Tolle Übersicht zu Klimaschutzgesetz, Klimarat, Klimakabinett, Klimareferat @bmwk.de etc. im neuen Ariadne Report: ariadneprojekt.de/media/2023/1... von @claudiazwar.bsky.social @chflachsland.bsky.social @jacobedenhofer.bsky.social

Der Tagesspiegel Background berichtet heute über unsere gestern veröffentliche Studie zu Klimainstitutionen (unten die Links zu den zusammenfassenden Threads). background.tagesspiegel.de/energie-klim...

Our cross-national study of climate institutions is now online! Click below to read the report (or a shorter exec summary!). And now, a thread summarising our results… (1/7) ariadneprojekt.de/en/publicati...

Regardless of your views on HS2, credible, long-term commitment - which is essential for climate policymaking - is a major casualty of this decision www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I'm excited to share the results of work with @jacobedenhofer.bsky.social, @chflachsland.bsky.social (+ others) in our upcoming webinar on 10 October. Click the link in @brigitteknopf.bsky.social 's post below to register. Stay tuned for a longer thread discussing our results, coming soon!
