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 Mortgages Are Reshaping the Housing Market","slug":"how-green-mortgages-are-reshaping-the-housing-market","published_at":"2026-07-18T19:16:47+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/how-green-mortgages-are-reshaping-the-housing-market","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-0119.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0119.mp3","summary":"In this episode of Climate Economics with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how green mortgages—loans that offer better rates for energy-efficient homes—are quietly changing the housing market. They dive into a concrete case: a pilot program by a major UK lender that offers a 0.25% rate reduction for homes with an Energy Performance Certificate rating of A or B. They discuss how this creates a direct financial incentive for homeowners to retrofit, the potential to shift the housing stock, and the challenges like verification and the upfront cost barrier. The episode also touches on the broader implications for the mortgage-backed securities market and whether governments should mandate energy labels for all homes. A smart take on how a simple financial tweak could drive massive carbon reductions. #GreenMortgages #EnergyEfficiency #HousingMarket #ClimateEconomics #Retrofitting #UKHousing #MortgageRates #EnergyPerformanceCertificate #GreenFinance #EconomicsPodcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #CarbonReduction #HomeRetrofit #SustainableHousing #PolicyIncentives #GreenLending Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"In this episode of Climate Economics with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how green mortgages—loans that offer better rates for energy-efficient homes—are…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":631,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/episodes/how-green-mortgages-are-reshaping-the-housing-market/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/how-green-mortgages-are-reshaping-the-housing-market.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
