The purpose of this study is to investigate the temporal aspects of the social cost of greenhouse gases. We are particularly interested in the interaction between time of emissions, discounting and type of greenhouse gas (where different greenhouse gases have different atmospheric life time). We...

Recent thinking about the economics of climate change has concerned the uncertainty about the upper bound of both climate sensitivity to greenhouse gases and the damages that might occur at high temperatures. This argument suggests that the appropriate probability distributions for these factors...
