In other words: The turnout gap between those who are pro-socially motivated and those who are more self-interested widens as the number of eligible voters increases (and the chance of casting the decisive vote shrinks). [7/7]

My first publication! 🥳

It's published in @JPubEcon (w/ Benny Geys & @RuneJSorensen) and tackles a classic question:

📊 FINDINGS:

1) For non-donors, we see a clear drop in turnout the larger municipality they move to ✅
2) The turnout of pro-social individuals (donors) is far less affected by the size of their municipality 📉 [6/7]

EU vedtar nå historisk klimatoll som første område i verden. Nå kan europeisk industri betale for sine klimagassutslipp uten å bli utkonkurrert av utenlandsk industri som ikke betaler klimaavgifter i hjemlandet. Utlendingene må nå betale klimatoll når de eksporterer til EU.
