This is the WordPress version of the Environmental Economics blog, previously hosted by Typepad from 2005 to 2025. The blog was most active from 2005 to 2017. At that point a number of factors led to the decline of economics blogging and we slowed down our posting significantly. Typepad shut down in September 2025 (with only a few weeks warning) and we tried to migrate everything to WordPress.
I *think* that we were able to migrate everything over but post authorship was not captured in the process. So, you read a post from the old days and you don’t know if John Whitehead or Tim Haab or a guest wrote the post. That is very upsetting. But, note that the tech department is to blame and the employees there are elderly and can make mistakes.
It then took several months to figure out how to transfer the env-econ.net domain name from Network Solutions to WordPress and then figure out how to get the DNS record(?) recognized by WordPress. I think everything is working now.
