Are we adapting to climate change? In new preprint, we use decades of data on 21 outcomes around the world & measure whether they have become less sensitive to a given change in climate. We find clear evidence of such adaptation in only ~25% of cases. 1/x nber.org/papers/w32985

Announcing v2 of our climate adaptation conference at Stanford, this Oct 10-11. Please submit! Looking for empirical work on adaptation & will consider earlier-stage working papers as well as more polished work. Submission deadline July 15. Plz share, RT gsb.stanford.edu/faculty-resear…

New working paper on climate, wildfire smoke, and mortality, expertly led by @minghao_qiu @StanfordECHOLab . We find that by mid-century in the US, damages from mortality from wildfire smoke are about equal to the sum of all other climate damages in recent estimates 🧵

Mortality from increased wildfire smoke due to a warming climate could represent one of the largest costs of climate change in the US, from @minghao_qiu, Li, Gould, Jing, Kelp, Childs, Kiang, Heft-Neal, Diffenbaugh, and @MarshallBBurke nber.org/papers/w32307

@MarshallBBurke Our paper dovetails nicely with another Nature paper out today that estimates global PM trends from landscape fire. Their estimates for the US look highly consistent with ours, and also point out much higher burden in lower-income countries. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Homes, schools, places of work need access to filtration and need to know when to run it (often). In my view, there is strong role for public subsidy here, given large public health benefits. For evidence on health impacts, see our paper from yesterday: x.com/MarshallBBurke…

Couple of wildfire papers out from our echo lab group this week. First one out yesterday, expertly led by @samheftneal @StanfordECHOLab , on smoke effects on emergency dept visits in California. Some surprises! Quick thread ttps://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2302409120

Second paper on wildfire smoke from our @stanfordecholab group out this week. This one quantifies the contribution of wildfire to US PM2.5 trends. We find much broader wildfire influence than previously estimated, on both avgs and extremes. Quick thread. nature.com/articles/s4158…

For the average American, we @StanfordECHOLab calculate that cumulative smoke exposure (PM2.5 exposure on each day, summed across days) through mid-2023 is already way worse than total cumul exposure in every year since 2006. And main fire season in West is just getting started.

Quick 🧵 on historic wildfire smoke event ongoing throughout eastern Canada and much of eastern US. Monitors showing very high levels of PM for thousands of miles. For reference, background levels are ~10ug, so these levels are way above normal.

For those interested in evidence on the air quality and health benefits of transitioning from gas to electric cooking, check out these two new pre-prints lead by @gould_cf. Both suggest large benefits using designs that improve on what's in literature. Quick 🧵

Improvements in air quality are slowing or being reversed in the US, and wildfires are substantially to blame, from @MarshallBBurke, Marissa L. Childs, Brandon De la Cuesta, @minghao_qiu, Jessica Li, Carlos F. Gould, Sam Heft-Neal, and Michael Wara nber.org/papers/w30882

Really terrible outdoor air around Seattle today, but just as important to look at what's going on inside buildings as well as outside. And that picture is ... also very bad. Here's outdoor & indoor purple air this morning - lots of indoor readings way into the 100s. Terrible!

Check out our new paper on the impacts of wildfire smoke exposure on test scores, expertly led by @jeffliwen. Smoke exposure during school year lowers test scores at end of year, w/ monetized costs in billions annually. doi.org/10.1038/s41893…
