Correction on Weitzman’s Position on Geoengineering

All Posts 2 Comments

I realized after it posted that in my IER post on Nordhaus’ book review of Weitzman (and his co-author), I misunderstood one of Nordhaus’ passages. I thought Nordhaus was saying that Weitzman (and co-author) wondered whether humans should even be learning more about geoengineering because of its risks, but I learned elsewhere that Weitzman is definitely in favor of learning our options. If you go here, you can see the old and new versions of the paragraph I altered.

    So the difference is that it’s just Nordhaus who wonders that, not Weitzman, right?
