Sustainable Lens traces the development of sustainability through its representation in diagrams. Sustainable Lens presents a model for seeing the world through a sustainability-driven perspective. Sustainable Lens is laid out in such a way that it can be read from cover-to-cover or opened at a particular page or diagram that draws your interest. The diagrams are featured on the right-hand side so as to celebrate their elegance.Sustainable Lens will act as a source book for those involved in communicating sustainability (including designers, teachers, scientists, policy makers) and others who seek insights about the concept and practice of sustainability.We started with a visualisation challenge. We finish with a bigger challenge. As you go about your life, stop occasionally, put up a frame (thumbs and fingers work well), and ask yourself how much difference you could make by seeing this scene through a Sustainable Lens?

We study the transmission of monetary shocks across euro-area countries using a dynamic factor model and high-frequency identification. We develop a methodology to assess the degree of heterogeneity, which we find to be low in financial variables and output, but significant in consumption, consumer prices, and variables related to local housing and labor markets. Building a small open economy model featuring a housing sector and calibrating it to Spain, we show that varying the share of adjustable-rate mortgages and loan-to-value ratios explains up to one-third of the cross-country heterogeneity in the responses of output and private consumption.
