So proud of this paper! Take a look.

Eg er visst i ferd med å bli ein sånn ekspert. To invitasjonar til Folketinget i haust, for å snakke klimapolitikk for dei som styrer. Og dei som står imot. Den eine saman med Mogens Fosgerau. Det er litt rart. Men fint og.

Whoa! Elsevier fired @richardtol.bsky.social, longstanding Editor-in-Chief of the journal Energy Economics. Richard's side of the story should be ringing alarm bells. #EconSky

By all indications, last years economics job market was much tougher than any year since the pandemic. But all signs point towards an even worse job market coming up this season.
