What is the impact of cycling infrastructure on pollution? In my #JMP, I use the rollout of New York City's bike share to estimate its causal effect on air pollutants. Key result: pollutants associated with car traffic decrease! vinceth.net/assets/doc/tho… 🧵 (1/8) #EconTwitter

UPDATE: Blackout in Spain / Portugal: Spain has managed to bring electricity supply to ~18 GW, but the recovery has slowed down as the sunset means the end of solar generation. At this time of the evening, Spain typically consumes ~25-30GW. #Apagon #blackoutspain

@__DanielRuiz @enmaaarc Building a true, high capacity RER-style regional network with fast connection to medium-sized towns in the metropolitan area is key to relieve pressure on the centre. If those tunnels are the bottlenecks, then they should be addressed urgently!

@enmaaarc Passen els anys, passen les generacions d'alumnes d'estudiants de camins i els problemes continuen sense resoldre. Aquest problema està identificant, com a mínim, des del pla de Rodalies de l'any 2008.

In new research, @Fra_Barilari and @d_zambiasi study how President Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush’s rhetoric on the War on Drugs while on the campaign trail, particularly targeting crack cocaine abuse, was enough to alter policing policy. promarket.org/2023/08/21/how…

All PhD researchers in Ireland are asked to sign this form before beginning a PhD. This is used by universities to classify PhD salaries as student stipends. This denies PhDs protections such as minimum wage, PRSI, maternity leave and sick leave. irishtimes.com/ireland/educat… 1/4

We all know air pollution makes us sick. It is also known that it reduces our productivity, stamina, and concentration! All of which can affect a country's overall economic activity (GDP). Today, I published a Discussion Paper that looks at this effect on the United States.⬇️

Our normally busy @TRiSSTCD office is empty right now! Best of luck to our postgrad researchers as they take part in the @PWO_Ireland march on the Dail, for recognition as the high-skilled workers that they are. (At TRiSS, we can't fix it - but we can offer you pizza later.)

Non-EU PhDs in Ireland deserve a fair treatment. This hurts Ireland's third-level education and economy as much as it hurts these researchers.
PWO Ireland@PWO_Ireland

Today we sent a public letter to @PhilipNolan_SFI, Director General of the SFI @scienceirel, the largest funder of PhDs in Ireland. We asked for unequivocal advice to all SFI centres to let non-EU PhDs claim expenses for mandatory insurance and the Irish Residence Permit 1/6
