What this episode covers
In this episode, economists from the Fraser of Allander Institute discuss their latest analysis of Glasgow's emissions reductions between 2005-2022. The research, part of the broader GEMINOA project studying air quality in Glasgow, reveals fascinating insights about how we measure climate progress at a local level. We explore why a 46% reduction in emissions might not tell the whole story, particularly when it comes to local climate initiatives like electric buses. The conversation highlights the challenges of measuring policy effectiveness and what this means for future climate action in Scottish cities.
