Bruegel’s mission is to help improve economic policy by conducting research and interacting with relevant stakeholders.

Social media has given us an opportunity to not only have meaningful exchanges and share knowledge, but also test our innovation. Social media platforms have developed over the years, and Bruegel has tried to respond and adapt, all with the goal of fulfilling its mission.

The platform X has changed in a way that no longer supports fact-based dialogue and limits its usefulness as a communication channel. We cherish all the connections we have made there since 2010. But as a community of economists and economics-enthusiasts, we are wary of succumbing to the sunk-cost fallacy of staying for the sake of staying.

For that reason, Bruegel will not longer post on X, though the username will stay.

Instead, discover and interact with the work of Bruegel’s fellows and staff at https://t.co/r2Sv7yhqv3 and our LinkedIn, Bluesky, Youtube and Instagram accounts.

The intuition, based on our June 2024 Bruegel Policy brief (https://t.co/IGPFig5Q78) is clear: economic losses from carbon emissions are especially high in countries that are richer, and hence have more to lose.

[Bruegel @Bruegel_org]

In this recent COP29 brief, Patrick Bolton & @AKleinnijenhuis expand on the June brief and make the Economic Case for a New Common Quantified Goal of Climate Finance (NCQG) at Scale.

Climate finance at scale for developing countries is not just equitable, but also in developed countries’ economic interest: https://t.co/yUeJf0nnR7
