... that environmental economist V. Kerry Smith has been described as a "Renaissance Man of Economics"? Source: [1] See "critical acclaim" tab: "‘Kerry Smith is a Renaissance Man of Economics. This book represents the master at work, drawing implications from research that traverses four decades of scholarship, the economics of environmental risk comes alive in ideas that scale, policies that are cost-effective, and insights that generalize to situations beyond risk. Anyone who wants to learn, or is just curious about pathbreaking economic work, should pick up this insightful and encyclopedic collection of articles.’ – John List, University of Chicago, US"

Article length and age are fine, no copyvio or plagiarism concerns (Some common phrases recur between sources and the article when checked with Earwig, but no more than expected), reliable sources are used. Hook seems fine to me, if a bit dry.

This is one of my first QPQ attempts, so apologies if I've messed up!
