Is economic growth decoupling from resource use & environmental impact?

My new paper shows the answer depends to some extent on the way we measure GDP, which changes over time.

This allows for finding contradictory results in different studies.

Gentle reminder that not once in the history of the world has arguing with strangers online led to anything good.
It sometimes sucks -- and part of why I reduced my time on here -- to see how comfortable some are on here sharing hate or following hateful people, especially lately

'Sustainability is more than climate.'

(I'm also 100% confident that the ESG human capital and talent gap can be quickly closed)
