We have a new paper from a multi-year, multi-disciplinary effort lead by Princeton School of Public & International Affairs, UC Berkeley, and Resources for the Future out in nature that estimates the Social Cost of Carbon (SCC) as $185, more than 3x larger than current U.S. federal estimate.

A well-deserved award for an incredible advisor, hype man, and scholar Max Auffhammer

We have a paper out in Science Magazine today showing how new guidelines allowing for income weighting in federal cost-benefit analysis would affect the social cost of carbon. Main takeaway, the SC-CO2 increases nearly 8x to ~$1300/ton. Resources for the Future ERGBerkeley science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
