Data used for the paper: "The Interactions of Social Norms about Climate Change: Science, Institutions and Economics" by Antonio Cabrales, Manu García, David Ramos Muñoz, Angel Sánchez. Available at: https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.09239 The file is composed of four spreadsheet. Sheet 1 - Europarl. It contains monthly data on the use of different words in the European Parliament. Each column is labelled with the corresponding word, and each row is a month. The cell counts the number of times a word has been used in a question in that month. Data from January 2002 to December 2018 Sheet 2 - Media. It contains monthly mentions to "climate change" or "global warming" in different news media outlets around Europe. Each column is labelled with the media outlet (or the aggregate for a country) and each row is a month. The cell counts the number of times that word has been used in that outlet in that month. Data from January 1980 to December 2020 Sheet 3 - Top 5. It contains yearly data on the mentions to "climate change" or "global warming" in the top 5 economics journals titles or abstracts. Each column is labelled with the corresponding journal, and each row is a year. The cell counts the number of times that word has been used in that journal in that year. Data from January 2002 to December 2020 Sheet 4 - Top 5. It contains monthly data on the mentions to "climate change" or "global warming" in the journals Nature and Science articles. Each column is labelled with the corresponding type or article and journal, and each row is a month. The cell counts the number of times that word has been used in that type of article and that journal in that month. Data from January 2002 to December 2020.

Climate change is one of the most pressing problems of humanity. Yet the carbon emissions have not decreased but increased since 2006. The present project presents a novel approach to achieve a global reduction of carbon emissions in the coming decades by harnessing the power of financial regulation. We will concentrate on the challenges to make this approach work, as well as on the opportunities it presents, to achieve a practical solution for this extremely difficult problem. We argue that financial stability regulation is sufficiently powerful to change the incentives for firms and reduce significantly their carbon footprints. The substance of the argument starts from the observation that financial systems are increasingly interconnected. This increasing interconnection has led regulators to give a larger role to a macroprudential approach in their activities. That is, they intend to reduce risks to the entire financial system, what they call “systemic risks,” rather than simply risks to individual institutions. The substance of this project is to answer a series of questions about the viability and desirability of this policy. It will be structured around three work packages. WP1, will analyse the expected distribution of shocks that arises from climate change. It will also study their impact to the financial system. The other two works packages will explore two key determinants of adoption of the policy. In WP2 we explore the impact of the large uncertainty about the effects of climate change on the mindset of regulators. In WP3 we study the transmission of social attitudes and social norms into the decision processes of legislators and regulators. The data will arise from survey experiments that will be used to answer the research questions in WP and from field data in WP3.
