🌍 A new #JAERE study asks: does carbon removal replace cutting emissions? No. Modeling direct air capture, ocean alkalinity enhancement & iron fertilization shows the optimal carbon price barely moves — but net emissions can turn negative, easing peak warming. 📊 #JaereFigureFriday 📈 #Econsky

The paper builds an integrated-assessment model with an explicit carbon cycle and finds the SCC (the dollar value of damage from one more ton of CO₂) stays nearly unchanged even when CDR is a full economic choice.

The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) doesn't just curb carbon leakage. It may recruit other countries into carbon pricing!🤝 A new #JAERE paper finds the CBAM cuts EU leakage from 40% to 15%. 📊 #JaereFigureFriday 📈📉 #Econsky

When trade partners are allowed to respond, the model predicts Canada, Japan, Korea and Taiwan would find it in their own interest to adopt the same policy.

🌡️ New #JAERE research asks: how well do common temperature proxies (nearest monitor, PRISM) match true station readings? Not well — the resulting biases range from -30% to +300% in a temperature–crime application, and fixed effects can make the bias worse 📉 #JaereFigureFriday 📈 #Econsky

💡A rural electrification push that ended up protecting forests?🌳 New research in #JAERE finds that rural electrification in Brazil slowed deforestation by nudging farmers 👨‍🌾 away from land-intensive cattle grazing 🐄 and into more land-efficient cropping🌾 📊 #JaereTableFriday 📈 #Econsky

💡 The policy takeaway: conservation doesn't always require fines and fences 🚫🚧 — seemingly unrelated policies that shift farmers' economic incentives can protect forests without any monitoring at all! ✅

📈 The mechanism: Once electricity arrived, capital like grain storage 🏚️ and irrigation 💧 became far more productive for cropping — so credit-constrained 💳 farmers redirected their limited resources toward it, and away from land-hungry cattle grazing 🐄. Total agricultural land demand fell 📉
