Using a two-stage least squares estimator for a panel of 165 countries from 2000 to 2023, the paper shows that lower wealth inequality decreases land use change emissions. The effect is most pronounced when inequality is measured by the top 10% wealth share and in developing countries, where land use change emissions constitute the majority of total emissions.

The concurrent surge in fuel, food, and fertilizer prices underscores the broad vulnerability of agrifood system in an interconnected global economy, where supply chain disruptions can propagate rapidly. It also highlights the urgent need for a deeper understanding of the short-and long-term drivers of the price of the world's most widely used nitrogen fertilizer: urea. To address this knowledge gap, our study employs a Vector Error Correction Model using global monthly data from 1985 to 2023.
This randomized controlled trial investigates how to accelerate the transition to the cleanest cooking fuel, electricity, and quantifies the benefits for people and the environment.
Historical contributions of carbon emissions differ widely between nations, constraining climate change negotiations. Cumulative country estimates ignore historical populations, overstating the role of large-population countries. In this paper, we present a global accounting framework. Adding CO2 emissions from land use change radically reshapes the map, moving Brazil from the world’s 8th largest creditor to the 3rd largest debtor. Yet, it does not change the position of the US, China and India.
Quinze spécialistes, issus des grandes écoles et universités françaises, ont contribué à la rédaction du manuel, dans le cadre d’un groupe de travail bénévole du Sustainable Development Solutions Network des Nations Unies.This textbook, written by fifteen economists from the SDSN France network, provides an accessible introduction to ecological economics and finance.
Energy poverty is a multidimensional issue, as demonstrated by a comparison between two low-income countries, Bolivia (BOL) and Côte d’Ivoire (CIV), and a high-income European country, France (FRA). These three countries represent different stages of access and energy poverty. The findings highlight the importance of considering affordability in efforts to ensure universal energy access, to prevent further exclusion and promote energy justice.
Cette thèse analyse l'évolution de la finance solidaire en France à travers l'essor des fonds d'investissement solidaires. Elle met en lumière les tensions entre logique financière et l'objectif solidaire initial, en s'appuyant sur trois cas.
Greater economic inequalities increase environmental degradation in most cases. Building on evidence from 136 studies and 406 empirical tests between 1998 and 2022, we construct a database enabling an in-depth analysis of the literature. Our main findings are threefold.
Cette thèse s'intéresse à la régulation des externalités environnementales liées à la production et la consommation de viande. Elle vise à la fois à proposer des instruments de second rang lorsque les politiques pigouviennes ne peuvent pas être mises en place par le régulateur, et à comprendre comment mobiliser les normes morales et sociales pour faire évoluer le comportement des consommateurs.
