Deadline: July 14, 2025
Submissions of papers are now open for the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) Environment Week 2025. The Economics of Environment and Energy Programme (EEE), International Growth Centre (IGC) and Programme on Innovation and Diffusion (POID) within the LSE Economics Department are convening the fourth Environment Week at the LSE on 22-25 September 2025. Working with partners at the School and across the world they want to use Environment Week to encourage economists from all fields of economics to work on environmental issues and to connect this work to policy change.
The urgency of addressing climate change, pollution, and environmental degradation continues to rise, highlighting the need for research in this area. Achieving a more sustainable balance between human activity and the natural environment, while maintaining economic growth, remains a significant challenge. Addressing it will require substantial innovation in multiple directions, including finding ways to make economic growth cleaner, control environmental externalities, and protect human populations from environmental change.
