You can also open the windows which is what I do if I teach in one of these old teaching rooms. Luckily most of our teaching rooms at LSE are actually in great condition but I know what you mean.

Absolutely!!!

This is very inconsistent with the evidence from top public finance papers.

Their mobility elasticity is high, and is higher for state/local taxes.

SBA is small but great! Phoenix is the nicest big US airport in my view

Seeing the Invisible: Responses to Indoor Air Pollution, with Robert D. Metcalfe Robert D. Metcalfe discusses his recent study of indoor air pollution levels in homes and how people respond when made aware of their exposure.

Nice to hear @rmetcalfe.bsky.social on @rff.org's Resources Radio podcast. The discussion covers some cool new research with my colleague @sjroth.bsky.social on indoor air pollution. Worth a listen.

Last week I took thirty of our fantastic environmental economics masters students on a trip out to an offshore wind farm. Lots of interesting discussion about renewable energy, plus there was time for fish & chips on the beach. All in all, a great day out!

Revealing real-time indoor air pollution cuts it by 17 percent overall, 34 percent when occupied. Lower-income households face worse indoor air pollution. A $1 subsidy for monitors has infinite public value, from @rmetcalfe.bsky.social and Sefi Roth https://www.nber.org/papers/w33510

New paper with @rmetcalfe.bsky.social on Indoor Air Pollution (IAP) in London - striking findings!
🔍 38% of the time, it exceeds WHO standards
⚖️ Hits lower-income households harder
💡 Real-time info cuts pollution by 34% during peak times
💷 People value cleaner air and are willing to pay for it

So much of our research on air pollution is focused on outdoor pollution, but indoors is where we spend 90% of our time. This is a really nice paper with some compelling findings!

We just released our paper using a field experiment to reveal indoor air pollution (IAP) in London: It’s worse than you think!

🧵with six main results👇

First day on sabbatical at UCSB and feeling right at home with a very warm welcome (including 🍷). Excited for the year ahead!

Just touched down on BlueSky! As an economist, I’m always curious about new platforms—so I asked my AI assistant to help craft this first post. Let’s see what kind of discussions take flight here! 🌤️ #NewHorizons #EconomicsInTheSky
