New research on how housing cooperatives in Poland faced the 2022 energy crisis. We focus on strategies for managing energy as a common good, the challenges of skyrocketing prices, and the resilience (and limits) of collective action. #EconSky #EnergySky thecommonsjournal.org/articles/10....

‪🧾 Poland is about to face a rise in energy poverty due to ETS2 — even with energy efficiency investments.
🔸 ETS2 could push energy poverty up by 1.5 pp by 2032
💸 We propose annual cash transfers covering up to 2.5m households.

🇬🇧Our new study shows that higher inequalities lead to weaker peer effects.
🇵🇱W naszym nowym badaniu pokazujemy, że im wyższe nierówności dochodowe, tym słabszy wpływ sąsiadów na decyzję o wymianie źródeł ciepła.

This line of thought, in addition to having zero merit on the substance, objectively advances Putin's agenda of turning European people against the European Union.

Will the EU’s new carbon rules widen inequality?
Our new study finds that without proper redistribution, the 2027 ETS expansion could raise living costs, cut wages & push migration in carbon-heavy regions: bit.ly/3F4QFnN

Kto powinien zapłacić za nadużycia w Czystym Powietrzu? Przedsiębiorca-naciągacz czy nabrany beneficjent? Jeżeli zapłaci beneficjent, to naciągając kogoś nie można stracić, nabrany będzie zwracał pieniądze naciągaczowi. @aleksandraholownia.bsky.social @dgprawna.bsky.social

Happy to share that @ncngovpl.bsky.social awarded me an #OPUS grant. I will investigate collective responses to the challenges related to energy, housing, and the labour market within the energy transition. Instead of focusing on solutions for individuals, we’ll explore how to foster cooperation.

The “highlight” of today’s USAEE/IAEE conference was Liz Murrill, republican Louisiana Attorney General keynote. She basically told that, Biden administration wanted to destroy the American oil and gas industry and to favour abortion with a carbon tax.
