  • Direct impacts can largely be tracked by monitoring a finite set of relatively well-defined metrics, while rebound effects encompass social, economic, and behavioral impacts across different areas of society.

    “While tracking direct impacts can largely be achieved by monitoring a finite set of relatively well-defined metrics, such as liters of water consumed or tons of CO2 emitted, rebound effects by definition encompass social, economic, and behavioral impacts across different areas of society [114].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
