Massimo Tavoni is the Director of the European Institute on Economics and the Environment, and full professor of climate economic modeling at Politecnico di Milano.
Key messages:

A sound understanding of climate policy needs to effectively integrate ex-ante and ex-post evidence. Such an integrated understanding should be.
