Abstract
Uncertainty about future economic and climate conditions substantially
affects the choice of policies for managing interactions between
the climate and the economy.We develop a framework of dynamic stochastic
integration of climate and economy, and show that the social
cost of carbon is substantially affected by both economic and climate
risks and is a stochastic process with significant variation. We examine
a wide but plausible range of values for critical parameters with robust
results and show that large-scale computing makes it possible to analyze
policies in models substantially more complex and realistic than
usually used in the literature.
