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.
Four in five people without access to electricity live in Sub-Saharan Africa, where mini-grids are seen as a key solution. Yet investment remains constrained by low and unpredictable demand, especially in fragile settings. We study electricity demand in North Kivu (Democratic Republic of Congo), using pre-grid census and survey data combined with six years of post-connection consumption records.
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.
The energy transition is a worldwide endeavor that most countries have come to acknowledge, thanks to the work of scientists all over the world. The use of fossil fuels in our energy-intensive economies for the past centuries has dramatically increased global warming (+1.5 degrees Celsius since preindustrial times), and public policies play a key role in the fight against this highly alarming trend. This dissertation focuses on three aspects of the economics of energy transition
