New - on sustainable growth for @LSEnews
To mark #WorldEnvironmentDay, @asvalero of @CEP_LSE lays out the key focus areas required to improve the UK's economic growth and deliver net-zero.
#GE2024 #NetZero #GreenTransition

More broadly, feels like we should update this @CEP_LSE paper from 2017 at some point - universities and industrial strategy in the UK @gillwyness_econ
cep.lse.ac.uk/pubs/download/…

An evaluation of the European Emissions Traffic Scheme in a top journal comes back with good news: the ETS is succeeding at reducing emissions -as opposed to outsourcing them to unregulated firms or markets.
Recently published in REStud, ``Does Pricing Carbon Mitigate Climate Change? Firm-Level Evidence from the European Union Emissions Trading System,'' from @JonathanColmer, @mondpanther, @MirabelleMuuls, and Wagner:

Early discussion about #GE2024 rumours on #Newsnight 2 nights ago, I was on after this [c.25 mins in] to discuss the economic outlook... highlighting (as ever) the importance of #productivity

With speculation mounting about an imminent general election announcement, here’s @nicholaswatt explaining the “massive” Tory rumours, as news filtered through of a drop in inflation
#Newsnight
This was in light of the IMF's statement which slightly raised the growth forecast for 2024 (0.5% to 0.7%) and highlighted the need for an overarching and lasting growth strategy to move the dial on longer term prospects imf.org/en/News/Articles/202…
To enable this, it was great to see IMF taking on board our recent proposals for an independent growth institution, see recent blog productivity.ac.uk/news/why-…
