Uncovering Biogas Outcomes: Tales of Hubris, Hope, and Failure From Southern Malawi
Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to speak directly to biogas failure. Over the past two decades, immense amounts of money have been spent by African governments, private individuals, and most conspicuously, international aid agencies and donors, on countless biogas projects in every country on the continent.

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We develop a framework for regulated production systems where output generation and pollution abatement impose competing technological demands. Using a multi‐ware technology, we model the production set as the intersection of two input requirement frontiers, one for production and one for abatement, each reflecting distinct trade‐offs.

Disciplining the “Queen of the World”? Responsible Innovation as a Way of Life
Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper offers a critical reflection on the concept of responsible innovation as defined during the last decades. We argue that the emphasis on innovation as a process risks neglecting the very goals of innovation, namely societal desirability and acceptability. Thus, we suggest reconsidering the role of imagination, the “Queen of the world”

Delivering Sulfate to LNAPL Body for Enhanced Source Zone Depletion (ESZD)
Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.Abstract This field pilot study evaluates the feasibility of applying sulfate to a light non‐aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) body for achieving enhanced source zone depletion (ESZD) at a refinery site. Two rounds of gypsum land application (GLA) delivered sulfate to an 8000 ft2 area encompassing LNAPL‐containing monitoring wells MW‐2 and MW‐3, while MW‐1 ...

Beyond the Wind: Mapping Externalities and Their Role in Shaping Willingness To Pay for Wind Energy
Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.ABSTRACTWind power plays a central role in global low‐carbon energy transitions, offering significant environmental benefits through reduced greenhouse gas emissions and decreased reliance on fossil fuels. Yet, local opposition to wind projects persists, often driven by perceived externalities affecting communities and landscapes. This study conducts a

Climate Change, Demand Uncertainty, and Firms' Investments: Evidence from Planned Power Plants
The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT How does demand uncertainty affect firms' investment decisions? We examine this question in the context of electricity‐producing firms' planned investments in new power plants. We measure uncertainty about future electricity demand using plausibly exogenous variation in temperature projections across scientific climate models. The results show
