Discounting and climate policy
Ploeg, Frederick van der - 2020
The social rate of discount is a crucial driver of the social cost of carbon (SCC), i.e. the expected present discounted value of marginal damages resulting from emitting one ton of carbon today. Policy makers should set carbon prices to the SCC using a carbon tax or a competitive permits...

Integrated assessment of climate catastrophes with endogenous uncertainty : does the risk of ice sheet collapse justify precautionary mitigation?
Diaz, Delavane B. - 2015
Greenhouse gas policies confront the trade-off between the costs of reducing emissions and the benefits of avoided climate change. The risk of uncertain and potentially irreversible catastrophes is an important issue related to the latter, and one that has not yet been well incorporated into...

The Climate Risk Premium : How Uncertainty Affects the Social Cost of Carbon
Lemoine, Derek - 2020
I analyze the marginal value of reducing greenhouse gas emissions (the "social cost of carbon") under uncertainty about warming, under uncertainty about how much warming reduces consumption, and under stochastic shocks to consumption growth. I theoretically demonstrate that each of these sources...

Weighing Cows, Geoengineering and Coal Under a Climate Tipping Risk and a Temperature Target
Wiskich, Anthony - 2019
Methane abatement and geoengineering have a short-lived effect on temperature compared with carbon abatement. Different optimal tax paths for these actions arise in a cost-benefit framework with an unknown temperature threshold where severe and irreversible climate impacts, called a tipping...
