C'est un peu un Quine ce tweet, dans le sens où il décrit a peu près ce qui m est passé par la tête pendant que je l'ai lu (a part que j'ai lu la suite de la phrase à la place d aller sur wikipédia).

Cela dit maintenant je suis curieux de savoir d'où il vient et il faulit quoi, je vais chequer

Capture d’écran de la première page de l’étude Viguié et al 2020

Le chiffre de +2-3°C de réchauffement en ville en pleine canicule à cause de la clim a pour origine cette étude (Viguié et al 2020), écrite par des chercheurs de diverses institutions (CIRED, CNRM, CSTB), et publiée donc en 2020 :

Do you mean something like "maths wants to be free and open source and most mathematicians agree that's a very important core value, and it is perverse to pay them to take their thoughts out of the public domain" ?

I hope that is true! Cannot help but wonder if the snowstorm is part of the reason

To be sure I quoted that, but the whole piece is littered with what everyone seems to need to read about climate finance
-adaptation consists of my mostly private or locally public goods easy to fund, but impossible to measure
- mitigation is a global good but is mostly provided by private goods

Is Climate Finance Fixable? Climate finance is a disaster. COP29 ended with a hotly-contested and almost universally-loathed agreement for rich countries to provide $300 billion each year to developing countries, to defray the c...

The first words of my final blog for CGD before starting as Deputy Chief Economist at FCDO:

“Climate finance is a disaster.”

But the problem is not that there isn’t enough of it. It’s far worse than that. It’s that none of it makes sense, and we’ve designed it in a way that minimises its impact.

How do public policies stack up? Is the impact of two policies larger than the sum of its parts?

We look at this in the context of food - labels + price policies - & find they are *extremely* sub-additive.

Also, labels do way better than prices.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing. Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

"aid shouldn’t be diverted away from high return projects in the poorest countries in order to help rich countries build a façade of global climate solidarity". Bold !
