The E-axes Forum provides a unique source of information and debate on ongoing research and policy options on climate change, macroeconomics and finance.
Carbon pricing is an increasingly popular climate policy tool, but does it work? Read our recent research digest on how carbon pricing affects firm and investor behavior. 🔗e-axes.org/research/the-i… #NetZero #ClimateChange
Extreme heat could cost cities in Europe and Central Asia 2.5% of GDP annually by 2050 without action. A new @WorldBank report explains how the region can take steps now to adapt. Learn more: wrld.bg/gguL50WtrZn
This provides an important reminder: the humanitarian catastrophes brought by higher and more volatile temperatures also produce economic harms. Climate inaction is bad for people and bad for economies. Read more: tinyurl.com/mryjvabr #NetZero #ClimateChange
New research shows that specific food items, from olive oil in Europe to onions in India, experience much steeper short-term price rises, which fuel inflation. on.ft.com/44Er9Ab
Ambitious climate policies are necessary now. Read our policy brief on how governments can fashion effective policies with the greatest impact. 🔗tinyurl.com/yc4w5zsh #NetZero #ClimateChange
UN Climate Change just published a report analyzing global climate policies and how they use and implement "just transition" principles. This is an important reminder that, to be effective, net-zero goals can and must improve quality of life. tinyurl.com/yww46292 #NetZero
In June, solar power generated more electricity than any other source in the EU. This is great news, especially given that public support for investments in renewable energy remains high. #NetZero #RenewableEnergy euronews.com/green/2025/07/…
🚨CALL FOR PAPERS🚨 Submissions are open for The E-axes Forum Research Prize for young scholars. In the last three years, our prestigious prize committees have received excellent submissions and look forward to another round. Learn more: e-axes.org/prize/ #ClimateResearch
We've been saying this a for long time: the common perception that ambitious environmental policies are economic risks is false. We need to move towards net-zero, not just for the environment, but also for the economy! #NetZero #ClimateAction
Net-zero is much cheaper than thought for UK – and unchecked global warming far more costly carbonbrief.org/obr-net-zero-i…
At today's BRICS summit, Brazilian President Lula slammed climate "denialism and unilateralism" and demanded wealthy states offer climate financing for poorer ones. At last year's COP, we unveiled proposals for how such a system could work. 🔗tinyurl.com/3d6xbeww #NetZero
We just released our July Research Digest. It features a policy brief about chronic under-insurance for climate risk among American households and a literature review about regulating agricultural emissions. Read it now and subscribe! 🔗tinyurl.com/4pzyp7kf #ClimatePolicy
It is not just the high temperatures that harm economic output; temperature volatility more generally is bad for business. Read our recent research digest about the link between climate change, volatile temperatures, and investment returns. 🔗 tinyurl.com/4rmzk526 #NetZero
We posted this before Europe entered the deadly heatwave it is now experiencing. Recent events only make it more important. Extreme heat is bad for people, the environment, and the economy. The only solution is ambitious climate action now!
The UK Met Office has found that June heatwaves are becoming more frequent over time. This is cause for concern. Read our research digest, which found that increasing global temperatures leads to decreases in global economic output. 🔗 tinyurl.com/57dhye5x #ClimateChange
Reason for optimism! These advisers are right that governments must commit to ambitious net-zero policy measures. They are also right that tackling climate change can actually increase growth and investment. Visit the E-Axes Forum to learn more. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Fascinating research from @GRI_LSE! As their report says, these benefits are not a substitute for ambitious climate policy. They are only possible if policy-makers use AI to make renewable energy production and policy implementation more efficient. #NetZero #ClimateChange
Advancements in artificial intelligence in power, transport and food consumption could reduce global emissions of greenhouse gases by 3.2 to 5.4 billion tonnes of carbon-dioxide-equivalent annually by 2035, according to new research by us and Systemiq. lse.ac.uk/granthaminstit…
