In the March Environmental and Resource Economics: The Ricardian model is a widely-used approach to measuring economic impacts of climate change when farmers adapt their behaviour. Charlotte Fabri, Sergei Schaub, Steven Van Passel & Tobias Dalhaus examine its robustness. #EAERE

Solid title, I respect it @joshua-goodman.com (also cc @raulpachecovega.bsky.social )

Remember the "Highlights" that some Elsevier journals require? Dean Karlan and friends developed an amazing way to troll them: haikus!

In this article, we reflect on "farmer surveys" in three European countries. Exciting to be part of this meta-science exercise. We learned a lot about our surveys. Hopefully, others find this useful. Would not have been possible without the excellent lead of Thomas Slijper. doi.org/10.1111/1477...

Just finished Annika Norlin’s “Colony.” It’s a captivating story about a journalist with burn-out who goes into the woods and encounters a strange commune of outsiders. Very fun to learn about all of their backstories and figure out what happened 🧩

Juli Zeh erklärt wieder, dass ihre Nachbarn keine Rechtsextremen sind. Und dass ist halt mal wieder vollkommen vorbei am Thema. Es ist nämlich total egal, ob die rechtsextrem sind oder nicht oder ob sie eigentlich die Demokratie gut finden, wenn sie mehrheitlich (51,x%) eine Partei wählen, die 1/7

We wrote an article explaining why you shouldn't put several variables into a regression model and report which are statistically significant - even as exploratory research. bmjmedicine.bmj.com/content/4/1/.... How did we do?

Super-cool new paper, using an RCT to estimate the impact of information framing on eco scheme uptake: doi.org/10.1186/s401...

In a new article, we study acceptance of methane-reducing feed additives among Swedish dairy farmers; acceptance is high overall (low willingness-to-accept), i.e., feed additives are a cost-effective GHG mitigation measure in Sweden doi.org/10.1093/erae...

In a new article, we test different behavioral interventions (and combinations) in four EU countries. Null results on "light green" eco-schemes. doi.org/10.1093/erae...
