New paper out in Energy Policy on solar home systems (SHS) in rural Pakistan.

With Marco Nilgen and @jlinde.bsky.social we follow a large SHS programme in rural Sindh ~10 years after rollout and ask:

When does early “access” become sustained i.e., a system that still works and is used years later?

A new paper by George Borjas—who served this past year in the Trump White House designing some of its anti-immigration policies—claims to display evidence of ideological bias among researchers who study immigration.

Now out in Party Politics 🎉

Our study (@jbpilet.bsky.social)suggests that when a mainstream right-wing party signals willingness to rule with the radical right, support for the radical right rises — while the mainstream gains nothing.
👉 A legitimisation effect.

To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

🔥 The never-ending narrative…
This week, I’ve once again heard prominent climate researchers dismiss individual action as either irrelevant or a distraction instigated by the fossil fuel industry.

Here’s a 🧵 on why this argument frustrates me to no end and why I think it misses the bigger picture.

Diese Union ist wirklich eine Gefahr für unsere Demokratie. Wenn sie sich nicht in den Griff bekommt – den menschenfeindlichen Populismus, die kulturkämpferische Rage, die systematischen Unwahrheiten, den Opportunismus, die fehlende Rechenschaft –, sehe ich schwarz.

Our research confirms this. Climate change increases the need for air conditioning for people to not die in heat waves. We need clean energy. We need efficient buildings. We need green infrastructure. We need more of this that most folks can imagine. We should start building it all right now.
I’ve read a lot of research on air conditioning, heat waves, and mortality, and there’s extremely strong consensus among actual experts about “we need to expand global access to air conditioning at the same time as we engage in other sustainable measures, like better architecture and green spaces.”

Seit Jahrzehnten wird in der Forschung Steuergeld verschwendet! Wissenschaftsverlage machen riesige Profite, während wir oft keinen freien Zugriff auf die Forschung haben, die wir ja selbst finanzieren. Wie kann das sein!? Und lässt sich irgendwie lösen?

🚨🚨🚨Blockbuster paper out today! Bear with me as I explain why this one is so important.

🤔 The *economic* anger about immigration is based on the false notion that immigrants take jobs or lower wages. A major misunderstanding behind this view is that immigrants only increase the supply of labor.
