Very good article on #Nordhaus' "handing weapons and munition to the fossil fuel industry" (as Steve Keen put it in a 2022 talk). Let's hope, Nordhaus sees a jail from the inside before his passing – for his crimes against mankind.
I just came across this infuriating reply https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2214347119 by economists Burgess, Pielke, Ritchie to the " #ClimateEndgame" paper ( by Kemp, Steffen, Lenton, Schellnhuber, Rockström 2022: https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2108146119).
You won't be surprised but I just have to spell it out:
They try to debunk the #climate paper as alarmist!
For their argument, the #economists claim that 3.5C costs only 2%-15% of global #GDP so civilisation collapse were implausible. The silly fossil fools. #EconObscene
Ha. Ha Ha. Not funny. Infuriating.
