Lucas and Luna break down the real economics behind carbon pricing, green policy, and the hidden costs of sustainability. 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 #InflationReductionAct #SocialCostOfCarbon #ClimateEconomics #NetZero #CarbonTax #CleanEnergy #ESGRisk #ClimateFinance #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #DailyBusinessShow #PolicyImpact #MarketIncentives Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
