Interested in why Germans rarely drink tap water despite its high quality? Our study in the @WRDwatermatters investigates factors influencing tap water consumption in key out-of-home settings. https://t.co/wgMF2j9z5H @SimonSchaub5@jale_tosun@SinaAKlein
📢 Publication Alert! Wondering about how to measure climate policy content in text-as-data? Our new OPEN ACCESS article might provide (some) answers: https://t.co/NXLqxYb0GD @CAST_Centre @ClimateUEA_ @TyndallCentre
Evan Drake and Jakob Skovgaard study the dismantling of 'anti-climate' policies. They find that countries with proportional representation and high levels of corporatism tend to have lower levels of fossil fuel subsidies.

In the introduction to the special issue, @jale_tosun, Andrew Jordan and I provide an overview on how climate policy has evolved globally and discuss
how politicians and civil servants influence the adoption of climate policies or their dismantling.

@_johnkenny studies public support for withdrawing from international climate cooperation and finds that such support has been lower in liberal democracies, which are less dependent on fossil fuels for energy production.

Matthew Paterson, Stanley Wilshire & @_Paul_Tobin_ offer an improved understanding of discursive strategies actors use to undermine net zero targets. They study how right-wing populists seek to undermine the UK net zero goal and dismantle policies.

@sarah_wien studies the climate-migration nexus in AUT, DEU, DNK, and SWE and shows that policy discourse on climate and migration in these countries is dominated by migration prevention.

@schaffer_le and Zsuzsanna Magyar show that exposure to renewable energies (solar) enhances support for climate policy expansion in Germany and Switzerland and that general and political trust moderates this relationship.

@shaikh_eskander, @JoanaSetzer, @SamFankhauser et al. (2024) investigate both country and company net zero targets and find evidence for the claim that national states and companies are in a mutually reinforcing "ambition loop" of mitigation efforts.

@ClimateLeo, @micheldenelzen et al. (2023) assess the progress large emitting countries have made towards meeting their climate commitments and identify a gap between promising more ambitious mitigation efforts and actual climate policy expansion.

Lana Ollier, @MarcMelliger and @florencemetz study energy transitions in six EU member states and find that some countries were more successful in transitioning to renewable energy in face of shifiting policy priorities along the transition.

In a rectlent blog post at the @blog_hca I give some insight into US climate policy, its impact on CO2 emission reduction and provide an outlook on the future in light of the upcoming presidential elections this year. Check it out here: https://t.co/dbrnOMUuMb
📣 New on the blog: @SimonSchaub5
looks at the US and its international obligations regarding climate change. What has the US promised to do? Which policies have the federal and state govs adopted? Have those helped to reduce emission? Find out here ⬇️

In this final #ecprgc23 policy process panel, @SimonSchaub5 argued that because the political debate is becoming increasingly moralized, we need to pay more attention to moralization when analyzing policy narratives.
1) We have a last exciting panel today on the #NPF: Join @CSchlaufer, @SimonSchaub5 and myself today at 10:45 for the discussion of cutting-edge research on policy narratives in crises and conflicts! https://t.co/dIdOswWFMj
Excited to be in gorgeous Prague for #ecprgc2023, and to present joint work on conservation policy durability alongside exciting papers on "The Politics of Climate Policy Expansion and Dismantling." Join @jamespatt10,@SimonSchaub5, @levariosaad, @chantalS_T, and me Weds at 16:00!
