Each episode examines a specific mechanism — from EU ETS permit prices to the impact of US Inflation Reduction Act subsidies on corporate balance sheets — and traces how these policies ripple through energy markets, manufacturing, and consumer prices. Lucas brings the numbers and institutional context (how the World Bank's carbon pricing dashboard works, what the Social Cost of Carbon actually measures), while Luna pushes for the practical implications: does a €50 carbon tax actually change behavior? What happens when a steel plant in Germany faces both emission costs and Chinese competition? The show serves investors, policy analysts, and business leaders who need to understand climate-related financial risk without the activism or greenwashing. Listeners walk away able to parse a carbon offset market, evaluate a company's net-zero roadmap, and spot the difference between a real price signal and a political slogan. How do you put a number on a ton of carbon — and who pays when that number is wrong? #CarbonPricing #GreenPolicy #SustainabilityCosts #EUETS #Infla…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T06:19:03.667812+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781"},"episode":{"title":"How Green Leases Are Reshaping Commercial Real Estate","slug":"how-green-leases-are-reshaping-commercial-real-estate","published_at":"2026-06-29T19:30:14+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/how-green-leases-are-reshaping-commercial-real-estate","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0081.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0081.mp3","summary":"Episode 81 of Climate Economics explores the rise of green leases in commercial real estate. Lucas and Luna break down how these contractual agreements align landlord-tenant incentives around energy efficiency and sustainability, using the example of the Empire State Building's 2010 retrofit and its lease structure. They discuss why traditional split incentives have blocked efficiency upgrades and how green leases overcome this with clauses on energy data sharing, capital improvement cost recovery, and sustainability committees. The episode also touches on the growing role of green lease provisions in ESG reporting and the potential for a standardized green lease template to accelerate adoption. Specific numbers include the Empire State Building's 38 percent energy reduction and the 4-6 percent rent premium for green-certified buildings.
