    'World on Fire' provides readers with the opportunity to ponder how the highly topical issues of climate, extinction, and disease relate to issues in their personal lives. It presents a new theoretical framework based on biomass and energy for thinking about animals and their role in planetary health and inspires strong reader engagement through its straightforward yet provocative conclusion: no longer eating animals as a solution.

    "We face three epoch-defining environmental problems: climate, extinction and pestilence. Our climate is changing in ways that will have serious consequences for humans, and may even profoundly affect the ability of the planet to support life. All around us, other species are disappearing at a rate between several hundred and several thousand times the normal background rate of extinction. The SARS-CoV-2 virus, which has wreaked social and economic havoc, is merely the latest model off a blossoming production line of newly emerging infectious diseases, many of which have the potential to be far worse. At the heart of these problems lies an ancient habit: eating animals. This habit is the most significant driver of species extinction and of newly emerging infectious diseases, and one of the most important drivers of climate change. This is a habit we can no longer afford to indulge. Breaking it will substantially reduce climate emissions. It will stem our insatiable hunger for land that is at the heart of both the problems of extinction and pestilence. Most importantly, breaking this habit will make available vast areas of land suitable for afforestation: the return of forests to where they once grew. Afforestation will significantly mitigate all three problems. But only if we stop eating animals will we have enough land for this strategy to work"--

    This paper studies the effect of climate change mitigating policies on innovation in clean energy technologies. Results suggest that the tightening of environmental policies since the early 1990s have made a statistically and economically significant contribution to the increase in clean innovation. These effects generally materialized quickly, within 2 to 3 years of the policy change, and were driven by individually significant marginal effects of both market-based policies - such as feed-in tariffs and trading schemes - as well as non-market policies, such as R and D subsidies or emission limits. Looking at electricity innovation in particular, the paper finds that the estimated effect on total innovation is positive on net, meaning that increased innovation in clean and grey technologies is not offset by a decrease in innovation in dirty technologies. From a policy point of view, the paper's results call for strong policy efforts to decisively shift innovation towards clean technologies

    Achieving the Paris Agreement's temperature goals requires cutting global CO2 emissions 25 to 50 percent this decade, followed by a rapid transition to net zero emissions. The world is currently not yet on track so there is an urgent need to narrow gaps in climate mitigation ambition and policy. Current mitigation pledges for 2030 would achieve just one to two thirds of the emissions reductions needed for limiting warming to 1.5 to 2oC. And additional measures equivalent to a global carbon price exceeding USD 75 per ton by 2030 are needed. This IMF Staff Climate Note presents extensive quantitative analyses to inform dialogue on closing mitigation ambition and policy gaps. It shows purely illustrative pathways to achieve the needed global emissions reductions while respecting international equity. The Note also presents country-level analyses of the emissions, fiscal, economic, and distributional impacts of carbon pricing and the trade-offs with other instruments-comprehensive mitigation strategies will be key

    Using longitudinal data from two household surveys in 2017 and 2019, we analyze the determinants of climate skepticism in Germany. We find that nearly 20% of respondents state that they do not believe in climate change and more than 30% are doubtful that climate change is mainly caused by human action. Both percentages have increased over time. Moreover, we detect that political orientation is a crucial determinant for climate skepticism, as respondents inclined to Germany’s right-wing populist party AfD are substantially more climate-skeptical and object to climate policies more frequently. One reason for the deviating beliefs may be rooted in the different trust in science, even if we can rule out that the lack of knowledge is a major factor. Consequently, our findings indicate a clear division in society on climate-related issues, one that would widen if the measures taken to combat climate change involved distributional consequences for AfD voters, as they already feel particularly burdened by energy costs. Anhand von Längsschnittdaten aus zwei Haushaltsbefragungen aus den Jahren 2017 und 2019 analysieren wir die Determinanten der Klimaskepsis in Deutschland. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen, dass fast 20 % der Befragten angeben, nicht an den Klimawandel zu glauben und mehr als 30 % bezweifeln, dass der Klimawandel hauptsächlich durch menschliches Handeln verursacht wird. Beide Anteile haben im Laufe der Zeit zugenommen. Darüber hinaus stellen wir fest, dass die politische Orientierung eine entscheidende Determinante für Klimaskepsis ist, denn Befragte, die der rechtspopulistischen Partei AfD zugeneigt sind, sind wesentlich klimaskeptischer und lehnen die Klimapolitik häufiger ab. Ein Grund für die abweichenden Überzeugungen könnte in dem unterschiedlichen Vertrauen in die Wissenschaft liegen. Unsere Ergebnisse deuten also auf eine deutliche Spaltung der Gesellschaft in Klimafragen hin, die sich noch verstärken würde, wenn die Maßnahmen zur Bekämpfung des Klimawandels mit Verteilungskonsequenzen für AfD-Wähler, da sie sich durch Energiekosten ohnehin schon besonders belastet fühlen.
