#EconTwitter my postdoc position at ETH Zurich (ETH Zurich) becomes available part-time (50-80%) as I will join Economics at Zurich in October. Focus is on environmental & behavioral econ. Have a look at the ad and DM me in case you are interested! drive.google.com/file/d/1tMtZH-…

In a new WP, we evaluate a behavioral intervention that has an exclusive focus on hot water. Households save hot water, but we also measure e.g. room heating. What are your #spillover priors on room heating energy? (RT appreciated)

Attempt to clarify the reoccurring confusion where a.)Non-economists, esp. natural scientist state: “on a planet with finite resources, infinite growth is logically impossible” b.)Economists take this as sign of mere ignorance about economics So who is right?

On my way to Swiss National Bank 🇨🇭 SNB BNS (parody) to present my work with Rebecca Stuart, @NHauzenberger and Cédric Tille on 170 years of Swiss interest rates, exchange rates and inflation (the entire Swiss franc period). Stay tuned for the working paper

Congratulations to Emma Raducanu who thoroughly deserves to be crowned Sports Personality of the Year 2021. Makes me feel very old that she’s the same age as I was waaaaay back in 1998. #SPOTY

Delighted to see my first article "Rebel without a Cause" published in ESR. We explore the effects of social origins and disposable income on rule-violating behavior with interesting results (with @alex_ehlert and #H_Rauhut)

That was a fun start, Fabian Schär ! Answering the Bank for International Settlements conference's question ("Does safe #DeFi require #CBDC s ?") right at the beginning...

#QT We don’t need higher #unemployment to “getting #inflation under control” – Listen to @D_Blanchflower : unemployment hurts 5x 10x more than #inflation

Ultimately I agree with this (that is, I oppose banning PoW). The government picking and choosing which specific applications are an okay use of electricity or not is a bad idea. Better to just implement carbon pricing, and use some of the revenues to compensate low-income users.

Looking forward to our session at #EEAESEM22! Will present a field experiment on behavioral spillovers from a hot water intervention, joint work with Alexander Goetz and Renate Schubert.

Nice, colored plots make half the battle! Read my new article proposing a «clan detector algorithm» in Social Networks: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #NetworkAnalysis #HistoricalData

Just published in Journal of Public Economics: "One thing leads to another: Evidence on the scope and persistence of behavioral spillovers" By Alexander Goetz, Harald Mayr, and Renate Schubert sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Alexander Goetz, Ioana Marinica, Harald Mayr, Luca Mosetti, and Renate Schubert investigate if mobile applications can promote sustainable mobility. They conducted a randomized controlled trial using the Swiss Climate Challenge App to track the mobility behavior of 410 participants over a
