This should be everywhere.

Bought a renewed PC mouse and it came from France (I think). It had a small slip of paper in the box with a URL for a product end-of-life advice website.

Inspiring dose of sustainable business realism here, with its recognition that some decarb practices are ROI-positive and some are ROI-negative.

Changes to Canada's business competition law have caused some companies to reverse sustainability commitments due to a lack of an internationally recognized methodology.

RIP Edward Leamer.

These two papers shaped my approach to empirical work.

My PhD training occurred when my field was "discovering" what Leamer said 30 years earlier in the 1983 paper.

Leamer's 2010 paper was prescient: methods didn't improve, but people learned the magic words to say.
