Weston: Ethics and the Social Cost of Carbon

Coffee, tea and cookies outside the hall at 4:00-4:15 p.m.

Paul Kelleher
Professor of Philosophy and Bioethics
UW–Madison

This talk will explicate the Social Cost of Carbon (SCC) concept, in part by distinguishing between two very different types of SCC. It will then explore the complicated role of ethics in the construction of SCC values and in the way those values are used by policymakers.

- Kelleher is also giving a seminar series talk on 11/4 (same topic)
