As the climate science debate is reaching closure, the climate economics debate is heating up.
Still lazy and overstuffed with meat. Until such time as I am feeling more energetic, Frank Ackerman provides a nice overview of the state of the economic debate re climate change and makes a case for acting immediately. Nice discussion of the importance of "discount rates". You'll laugh! You'll cry!

Oh Fred, hope you got a clue for Christmas.
Everybody "knows" the economic cost of going green. Too bad they're wrong. There's an actual chance here if only people could take it. Keep spreading the word. It's the c-word we need to know.
Does this mean that this time we are really, really (we promise) going to do something concrete about AGW?
By advocating for an end to climate change, do you propose that we work to eliminate climate change? If I'm not mistaken, it's been changing since about 4.5EE9 BC.
You guys seem to look at charts through a microscope. If you'd pan out you'd see how miniscule the "Catastrophic" recent changes are.
Can you explain the last major ice age, or, better still, the mini ice age that ended about the time of the US civil war?
