The limits to derisked decarbonization: state capacity unevenness in domestic green transition strategies, by @RosieCollingto tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

currently rereading & ugh i forgot how beautifully written this book is! could so easily have been stuffy & staid but im remembering how much i enjoyed the experience the first time around circa 2017(?) - pre-phd, working full time & only willing to read what was fun/interesting

What does de-risked decarbonization mean for state capacity across sectors? I am THRILLED that this article is now out in RIPE 🔓 Current climate finance regimes lock in lopsided transitions - states need resources for unbankable transitions. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Did not know this was a real giveaway until today (or that the term for them was 'em dashes') but know that I have been reading your working papers & Tweets w suspicion for a while now when I've spotted one of these long dashes—& I'm not the only one lol rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

Thought this was excellent on the financing of biodiversity, also reminded me of one of a great article (from 1994) where the sale of damage to nature is compared to the Pope selling 'indulgences' for noblemen who had killed, to make it easier for them to enter heaven.

.@phenomenalworld went on a publishing bender yesterday, wow--these all look really good

“In the realm of biodiversity, failure to achieve global targets has similarly been laid at the chasm between required financing and actual spending, with investment in nature purported to be five to seven times lower than required to reverse biodiversity loss.” @RosieCollingto

Wall Street won’t rewild the planet. Or decarbonize mining. Or defossilize agriculture. For @phenomenalworld I unpack why chasing investability harms climate goals in sectors beyond energy & transport - & what states can do with derisking failures phenomenalworld.org/analysis/unban…

NEW: 4 pieces address the core questions in the debate over green economic policies, with @cornelban73 + @jhasselbalch on state planning, @RosieCollingto on planet-critical sectors, @ShayakSengupta + Abhinav Jindal on multilateralism, and @BrusselerMel + Chris Hayes on derisking

Thatcher wanted a nation of shopkeepers; Starmer's latest vision is a nation of bombmakers. I wrote for @guardian on why more military spending will weaken our economy and serve the project of US dominance rather than our security. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

On Wednesday I'll be in Oxford to speak about my research on state capacity, green transitions and de-risking 🏭 I'm a huge fan of the work of many people involved in this group (if you aren't familiar with @sophusticated's work yet, you should be) so this is a big honour!

excited &nervous to be able to share this news! 📕✨ ANOTHER STATE IS POSSIBLE explores the flawed logic of Green State Capitalism - an approach that ties climate goals to private finance expansion - & how we can redefine what/who the state exists for thebookseller.com/rights/rosie-c…
