How do we get new environmentally-friendly technologies into the hands of people? One hypothesis is that social interactions with peers are essential: I provide causal estimates of peer effects on adopting electric vehicles (EV). A 🧵 on my JMP (sebastiantebbe.github.io/files/YST_Pape…) [1/9]

No amount of fiddling with taxes and subsidies is going to get us more fuel. Just like first home buyer grants and so on don’t get you more houses.

#BREAKING: the PM announces the halving of the fuel excise for three months, saving 26.3c/litre at the pump. Heavy vehicle user charges will also be removed for three months. ⁦@10NewsAU

Rent in rent-regulated vs second-hand unregulated flats in Sweden's three largest cities. Rents are 2.5x higher on the second-hand market in Stockholm. An arbitrary and poor system. (Rents in SEK/square meter.)

Workplace EV charging, particularly when aligned with peak solar energy production midday, offers a compelling solution for a more sustainable transportation future. Our UCSD team just published an article on this topic parking-mobility-magazine.org/october-2024/f…

Congestion pricing with exemptions for alternative vehicles can reduce traffic while incentivising green vehicle adoption. These exemptions are best employed when there are few electric vehicles on the road. @ProfNilsson @matttarduno @SebastianTebbe ow.ly/S9Bk50SZmlZ

Many countries want to decarbonize their economies. Eg, the US aims to be net zero by 2050. Given this target: What is the optimal transition path? What are the main drivers and economic implications? Our JMC Stefan Hinkelmann @s_hinkelmann tackles these questions in his JMP.

@SebastianTebbe Interesting! But what is "Having one fewer child" doing in there? I thought the question was how to decrease the climate impact conditional on life. Otherwise, should we also think about the positive climate impact of "Committing Suicide" or "Become a Mass-Killer"?

Why do we see so few publications in top journals addressing the massive environmental impact of plant-based diets? With food systems playing a major role in emissions, shouldn't research spotlight this vital aspect of sustainability? 🌱
