Uncertainties in Climate and Weather Extremes Increase the Cost of Carbon

Uncertainty is not our friend

Availability of risky geoengineering can make an ambitious climate mitigation agreement more likely

A simple model of climate negotiations shows how the mere threat of risky geoengineering might help induce a high-mitigation agreement.

India in the coming ‘climate G2’?

India, not China, will soon be the most significant counterweight to the United States in global climate negotiations.

Declining CO₂ price paths

In contrast to most modeled carbon price paths, our calibration suggests a high "optimal" CO2 price today that is expected to decline over time

Highly decentralized solar geoengineering

At ~$5/kg SO2 delivered, balloons are only ~4x as expensive as high-altitude aircraft

The Implications of Uncertainty and Ignorance for Solar Geoengineering

Where climate change and solar geoengineering are concerned, errors of commission and omission should be weighted equally.

Moral Hazard and Solar Geoengineering

Moral hazard [ˈmôrəl ˈhazərd, noun]—The lack of incentive to guard against risk when one is protected from its consequences.
