This famously is the year of elections. So the Stephanomics feed has been taken over by our bonus series, Voternomics. It’s a weekly look at the way geopolitics - and elections - are upending the longstanding assumptions of policymakers and business people around the world. Hosted by Stephanie Flanders, head of Bloomberg Economics and former BBC economics editor, former government advisor Allegra Stratton and Opinion columnist and author Adrian Wooldridge.

Kerry Lutz interviewed Gregory Wrightstone, who argued that increased CO2 levels and modest warming have positive impacts on ecosystems and the human condition. Wrightstone cited examples of increased agricultural productivity, drought resistivity of plants, and turbocharged plant growth through the photosynthesis process. He also challenged the unfounded fears surrounding nitrogen fertilizer and nitrous oxide, while presenting evidence of the global expansion of forests. However, he raised concerns about the environmental consequences of renewable energy initiatives, particularly the cutting down of mature forests for wood pellets and the conversion of grasslands into solar facilities. The conversation also delved into the potential risks of lowering CO2 levels and the criticism of spending tax money on what is perceived as a non-existent climate crisis. Wrightstone and Lutz engaged in a detailed discussion about climate change and sea level rise, challenging the commonly held belief that melting polar ice caps will lead to a significant rise in sea levels. They emphasized the importance of understanding natural processes, such as erosion, to avoid misguided policies. Overall, the meeting provided a platform for Wrightstone to advocate for the benefits of CO2 and modest warming, disputing the notion of a man-made climate crisis.
