Economics hasn’t fully internalized how difficult climate tipping points are to both predict and reverse. My JMP 🚨 estimates the costs of this unpredictability and irreversibility.

Climate models since the 1970s nailed it—most predicted global warming almost exactly as it happened.

The Nievas-Piketty unequal exchange paper is certainly better than Hickel's, but their counterfactual assertion of convergence between countries in 1800-2025 is based on these entirely political-economy-free assumptions

The excessive focus on linearized solutions to HA models is a bit like the old joke about the drunk who is looking for a key under a lamppost because that's where the light is.

As @shengwuli.bsky.social always says, when you notice the network theorists getting really excited, you're probably in for a bad time.
Modern supply chains don't look like trade theory 101!
They involve constant border crossings, each now hit by tariffs.
Tariffs raise prices, but the more important thing they do is disrupt supply relationships.

A while ago Alex London and I noticed that many of the objections to utilitarianism depend on a utilitarian being in a world of non-utilitarians.
There would be no forced organ harvesting in a world of utilitarians. People would line up to volunteer.
