Climate Damages: Uncertain but Ominous, or $51 per Ton?

Center for Progressive Reform 2019-02-14

Summary:

According to scientists, climate damages are deeply uncertain but could be ominously large (see the previous post). Alternatively, according to the best-known economic calculation, lifetime damages caused by emissions in 2020 will be worth $51 per metric ton of carbon dioxide, in 2018 prices. These two views can't both be right.
