The "Stern Review" on the Economics of Climate Change
Open accessAbstract
How much and how fast should the globe reduce greenhouse-gas emissions?How should nations balance the costs of the reductions against the damages and dangers of climate change?This question has been addressed by the recent "Stern Review on the Economics of Climate Change," which answers these questions clearly and unambiguously.We need urgent, sharp, and immediate reductions in greenhouse-gas emissions.An analysis of the "Stern Review" finds that these recommendations depend decisively on the assumption of a near-zero social discount rate.The Review's unambiguous conclusions about the need for extreme immediate action will not survive the substitution of discounting assumptions that are consistent with today's market place.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
