Descrizione del progetto
Comprendere le intersezioni tra scienza ambientale ed economia
Gli impatti esercitati dai cambiamenti climatici stanno diventando sempre più gravi per le comunità e le imprese di tutto il mondo, mettendo in evidenza la necessità urgente di rafforzare l’azione, l’innovazione e gli incentivi volti a salvaguardare l’ambiente. Con il sostegno del programma di azioni Marie Skłodowska-Curie, il progetto GREENVEST si propone di affrontare questa sfida integrando analisi econometriche all’avanguardia con dati satellitari per esaminare le intricate relazioni esistenti tra scienza ambientale ed economia. In particolare, il progetto si prefigge di valutare le dinamiche di mercato che contribuiscono all’inquinamento e alla perdita di biodiversità, nonché l’impatto degli investimenti verdi su banche, imprese locali e famiglie. In definitiva, i risultati ottenuti da GREENVEST dimostreranno i benefici finanziari della conservazione e delle iniziative ecologiche, fornendo indicazioni preziose per i responsabili politici.
Obiettivo
GREENVEST fuses the power of satellite data and cutting-edge econometric analysis to study patterns emerging in two under-studied, inter-connected phenomena at the crossroads of finance, environmental science, and economics: (1) green investments and local economies and (2) the contribution of market dynamics on biodiversity loss and pollution. Drawing on research from environmental economics, climate science, finance, and business strategy, I will explore and reveal to what extent households' financial welfare is impacted by public and private investments in green projects and how the investments, performance, and environmental impact of local firms and banks are affected by government green initiatives such as the EU Green Deal and the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). GREENVEST’s new modeling approach will not only enable environmental economists to estimate the financial value of natural ecosystems, but highlight for the first time the financial value of nature conservation and the financial benefits of investments in nature-based solutions. With the world-renowned business school IESE as my host and channeling my project through its Institute of Sustainable Leadership, I will grow new skills in project management skills, R&I insight communication and satellite and biodiversity data analysis to become a leading voice in biodiversity and sustainable finance in both academia and as a European policy influencer about green investments in service to public, non-profit, and private institutions.
