With
γ=2 and
T(t+s)=T(t)+T˙s, the marginal
damage is
2κD0W(t)egs[T+T˙s]. Integrating the constant and linear terms gives
S(t)=2κD0W(t)[r−gT+(r−g)2T˙],r>g.
The prefactor is
2(0.5×10−12)(0.003)(90×1012)=0.27 in the corresponding
dollar–
temperature–
time units. For the historical scenario with
r=0.03 and
g=0.02, the
bracket is
1/0.01+0.02/0.012=300, so
S=81USD per tonne CO2. For
r=0.07,
r−g=0.05,
giving global
S=0.27(20+8)=7.56 dollars per
tonne. Restricting impacts to ten per cent gives
Sdomestic=0.756USD per tonne CO2.
The factor of about 107 reduction comes from both the higher
discount rate and the geographical restriction; it is not
a change in
climate physics. The administration
descriptions are those of the 2019 question, not claims about
present policy. With
a net
discount rate of only one per cent,
a century-scale horizon contributes substantially, making the linear warming and exponential income
extrapolations consequential assumptions.
