Tragedy of the horizon on steroids: the green transition and credit ratings How do financial markets influence the green transition? Advocates of harnessing markets to foster the green transition claimed that market rationality is a reliable mechanism to channel investment...

Der Artikel von @vapunkt.bsky.social im heutigen @derstandard.at ("Seilbahnbetreiber denken in Horizonten von drei bis fünf Jahren") entspricht meinen Erfahrungen: Der Klimawandel wird von Touristiker:innen nicht (mehr) geleugnet, führt aber auch nicht zu mehr Einsatz für den Klimaschutz.

The politics of path reproduction under vulnerable climate conditions: the case of skiing infrastructure expansion in the Austrian Alps Abstract. Climate change poses risks to regional economies reliant on vulnerable infrastructure. While evolutionary economic geography highlights how estab
