Economic Theory Conferences
GDAE Research Presented at 12th Annual U.S. Society for Ecological Economics Conference, June 21-24, 2022.
GDAE Researchers Jonathan Harris and Anne-Marie Codur presented on Climate Challenges after the Glasgow Conference: the roles of Forests and Soils
The presentation emphasized the critical role of natural climate solutions in filling the gap between existing pledges and needed goals for carbon reduction. The 2030 “ambition gap” of 19-23 gigatons CO2 can only be closed with a substantial contribution of carbon absorption by forests, soils, and wetlands. Preserving and expanding forests and wetlands, and moving to regenerative agricultural techniques, are crucial. See related GDAE climate policy briefs on the topic.
GDAE Researchers Present at Ecological Economics/Degrowth Conference, 5th-8th July 2021.
GDAE Researchers presented at the Online Joint Conference of the International Society for Ecological Economics, the European Society for Ecological Economics, and the international degrowth research networks, hosted by University of Manchester, UK, 5th-8th July 2021.
GDAE presentations included:
Anne-Marie Codur and Sam Polzin, Farmers as Ecosystem Regenerators: A Case Study of the Northeast Healthy Soil Network.
Jonathan Harris, Getting to Net Zero: Ecological Economics Can Help.
Brian Roach, Jonathan Harris, and Anne-Marie Codur, Teaching Ecological Economics: Energy, Climate, Growth, and Degrowth
Brian Roach, Changing Economics of Renewable Energy.
The presentations emphasized lessons from the preparation of the fifth edition of Environmental and Natural Resource Economics: A Contemporary Approach: the increasing evidence of the severity and urgency of climate change, increased ambition for carbon reduction goals, and the essential role of renewable energy, energy efficiency, and carbon storage in soils and forests in achieving these goals.
