Summary: Epidemic forecasting has had a poor track record, especially highlighted by the failures during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, some of these problems can be addressed through careful modeling, consideration of multiple factors, and continuous evaluation of models based on their performance. Additionally, when major decisions are made based on forecasts, a holistic approach is needed to assess risks and harms.

Summary: This paper develops a new methodology to measure the productive capabilities of countries in the green economy and ranks them accordingly. The results indicate that countries with higher rankings tend to perform better in terms of environmental patenting rates, CO2 emissions, and environmental policies, even after controlling for per capita GDP. Additionally, the paper explores the potential of countries to transition into green products in the future and finds strong path dependence in the accumulation of green capabilities. These findings shed new light on green industrialization and have implications for green industrial policy.

Summary: This study found that financial development and renewable energy consumption reduce consumption-based CO2 emissions in Chile, while economic growth and electricity consumption increase carbon emissions. Encouraging research and development of low-carbon technologies and renewable energy investments, while reducing consumption of nonrenewable energy sources, should be a focus for policymakers.

Summary: Evaluation of climate-induced crop damages is important for developing innovative technologies and management strategies to reduce vulnerability in agriculture. This study analyzed survey data from 1232 wheat growers in Pakistan to estimate the production risk of weather shocks on wheat farms and the effectiveness of different management strategies. The results showed that extreme weather events had significant adverse effects on wheat crop damages, especially when occurring close to harvest time. The adoption of adaptive measures significantly reduced wheat losses, and factors such as education, farming experience, family size, cropping area, and access to weather forecast information also influenced the adoption of innovative management strategies.

Summary: In the context of sustainable development, the development of the digital economy can improve green innovation levels indirectly by boosting economic openness, optimizing industrial structure, and expanding market potential. The development of the digital economy has spatial effects on green innovation. However, the enhancement of green innovation in more developed regions may inhibit green innovation in less developed regions.

Summary: The novel COVID-19 has emerged as a severe threat to global health globally, affecting over 210 countries and regions. The outbreak of COVID-19 has exacerbated human misery due to the crippling of economies globally. Nearly every country is trying to prevent the transmission of this communicable disease. Remedial policies include testing and treating patients, isolating suspects through contact tracking, banning public gatherings, and asserting a complete or partial shutdown. The study aims to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the environment and energy market, society, economy, and global protective measures taken to reduce COVID-19 transmission.

Summary: This article introduces a new technique for estimating vector autoregressions with a common factor error structure using quantile regression, and applies it to study credit risk spillovers among sovereigns and their financial sectors. The study shows that idiosyncratic credit risk shocks have a stronger propagation effect in the tails of the conditional distribution than at the conditional mean or median. Furthermore, a measure of relative spillover intensity in the right and left tails of the conditional distribution is developed, which provides a timely aggregate measure of systemic financial fragility.
