  • Podcast: health, justice and the environment – the core issues

    David Somekh of EHFF interviews Tsvetelina Filipova on her research into health and the environment in Europe, and David and Caroline Whyte interview ecological economist Éloi Laurent about his focus on justice as a basis for environmental action.
  • Patrick Noble: a tribute

    We were terribly sad to learn of the recent death, after a short illness, of Patrick Noble, a long-time Feasta member and frequent contributor to the Feasta website. Patrick’s stimulating and provocative writing made extensive use of direct references and allusions to history and the arts, which gave it a vast richness.

  • A Primer on Carbon Pricing for the U.S.A.

    The U.S. is poised to take aggressive, belated action on climate change. What legislation should U.S. politicians pass in order to ensure that that action is both effective in reducing emissions, and fair? Brent Ranalli provides some evidence-based suggestions.

Statement on the US Rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement

FEASTA encourages policymakers and activists to take the opportunity, as the US re-engages with the Paris Climate Agreement, to include a science-based, equity-based, and people-based method of achieving the 1.5 degree goal: CapGlobalCarbon.

De-growth Discussion 3: inflation, deflation or (probably) stagflation

In what ways might a contracting economy bring about a massive redistribution of wealth, and which of these ways would be preferable? Tim Watkins and Brian Davey discuss this and many other topics in their exploration of the relationship between energy and inflation in the modern economy, and the risk from economic models which fail to account for declining energy.
