New paper in Nature on the implications of ending poverty on climate change, w/ a more realistic approach than existing lit. Good news: even with the most conservative assumptions, ending extreme poverty can be done without compromising climate goals. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Bold take from @TheEconomist in last issue: “Solar cells will in all likelihood be the single biggest source of electrical power on the planet by the mid 2030s.”

Capital destruction is a plausible pathway by which climate change could have persistent effects on economic output. Structural models capturing these pathways, like this work, are very useful IMO
stephane hallegatte@hallegatte

A great pleasure to see our paper on the macroeconomic modeling of natural disasters published in Economic Modelling. The paper extends the @WorldBank Macrostructural Model to capture key transmission channels of disasters and their immediate aftermath. authors.elsevier.com/c/1jFB9yGFsagIP

More work needed to represent prevention and preparedness measures, such as debt-financed adaptation investments or contingent credit lines. Many thanks to Florent McIsaac and Charl Jooste!

5 - The welfare impact of a disaster also depends on the ability of the economy to reallocate resources toward reconstruction, and the response of monetary policy (delaying monetary policy response makes the reconstruction faster and reduces total costs).

@JoeriRogelj Thanks and don’t forget to send us your feedback! There is no perfect way of doing this, but we need to get started and improve over time. It will be an iterative process…

Having struggled myself with figuring out how to assess the resilience of long-term low-carbon transformations, I'm glad to see @hallegatte's team at the World Bank came up with a project rating system. Still need to read it myself, but my interest is piqued. 👇🧐🌍🌪🌡

After a very collaborative development of the Resilience Rating System methodologies, we piloted it on $2.9 billion in World Bank projects. It shows how considering risk and resilience helps design and implement better projects that deliver more and better development gains.

The World Bank developed a Resilience Rating System to help guide investment decisions and improve climate resilience in project design and outcomes. Find out what we learned from applying it to 20+ projects👇

@hallegatte of the @WorldBank discusses the relationship between fostering #development and #resilience. They are not mutually exclusive, and should feed into the goal of reducing climate risk factors like poverty.

I see climate problems everywhere so the connection between Boomers’ housing ownership, the dysfunctionalities of housing stocks and stranded climate assets is my new grim obsession
Redfin@Redfin

Baby boomers are aging in place largely because they've paid off their homes or they don't want to trade in their lower mortgage rate. This trend is increasing homeowner tenure, exacerbating the shortage of homes for sale, and pushing up prices. #realestate

Apparently pre-paying your car rental with @Avis does not mean you’ll have a car. If it’s important, better to go with the competition…
