Welcome to my web page! I am the George
and Cynthia Mitchell Professor in Sustainable Development at the Department of Economics and a Center for
Energy Studies Scholar at the Baker
Institute for Public Policy at Rice
University. Currently, my main research focus is in Climate Economics,
where I study the transition to a sustainable economic growth. I am also
involved in interdisciplinary research on the many connections between
economics, the environment, conservation, and transportation. Finally, I am
interested in non-standard models of cognition and economic decisions. Click on
