Excellent to see Nordhaus win the Nobel, but the pairing with the IPCC 1.5 degree report is a bit awkward given Nordhaus' recent paper suggesting a 3+ degree scenario is optimal. I hope someone asks him about this. pic.twitter.com/cOLSH6J8fj

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
