Grass-based beef cattle production systems are generally perceived as beneficial to the environment. However, the climate impact of grass-based systems compared to systems based on energy-dense feeds remains controversial. The findings highlight potential trade-offs between climate goals and other sustainability objectives (e.g., biodiversity, animal welfare).
The recent inclusion of second-hand EV subsidies in several countries raises questions about their economic rationale. Contrary to conventional thinking, we show that while subsidies for second-hand EVs are often justified on equity grounds, they also improve efficiency as they influence the equilibrium composition of the vehicle fleet.

The report attempts to respond to the UN Secretary-General's recent call for "innovative approaches and bold policy decisions" to tackle the SDGs (UN, 2023). It attributes the existing finance gap to the unrealistic assumptions of the dominant macroeconomic paradigm, which it proposes to replace with new assumptions that are better able to address the...
This article looks at how to make fiscal, monetary and prudential policies greener in order to address the massive financing needs and major risks associated with climate change.
Starting with the observation, based on the recent experience of the financial and health crises, that the separate and independent implementation of monetary and fiscal policies undermines...
Les défis rencontrés par les entreprises cherchant à concilier durabilité, création de valeur économique et respect des enjeux environnementaux et sociaux dans nos modèles actuels de consommation et de production sont complexes. Les modèles d’affaires durables émergent comme une solution, mais, selon les activités, leur mise en œuvre est entravée par divers obstacles, comme...
This paper studies the long-term consequences of a zero-growth regime on the evolution of employment and unemployment, depending on the assumptions we can make concerning the evolution of the working population, labor productivity and working hours. These consequences are examined through three scenarios. This leads us to conclude that the goal...
Les pratiques de mobilité des Français. Graphiques de novembre 2024 issus d’une analyse avec Fabien Perez (SDES) à partir des données de l’enquête mobilité des personnes (EMP) de 2019.
Cette note a pour but de présenter de manière synthétique les modèles mathématiques utilisés aujourd’hui par la communauté des économistes du climat et leurs limites. Ces modèles sont utilisés à la fois pour dimensionner les mesures à prendre pour limiter le changement climatique et pour évaluer les impacts du changement climatique sur le système

This paper explores the potential contribution of Sustainability-linked Money Creation (SMC) to sustainable economic policies. Our simulations suggest that, in comparison to a baseline scenario, SMC issues could potentially constitute an anti-inflationary, counter-cyclical green transition policy, that increases biomimetic resilience and contains income and wealth inequalities. We finally discuss the policy implications, as well...
