Ross McKitrick: an evidence-based approach to pricing CO2 emissions - cartoon notes by Josh

Josh in Climate: McKitrick, Economics, GWPF, Josh, Tax

Here are my cartoon notes of a paper presented today by Prof Ross McKitrick, hosted by The GWPF in one of the committee rooms in the House of Lords, Westminster, London, UK. The title is "An evidence-based approach to pricing CO2 emissions" and you can download the PDF here. It was intellectually stretching, intriguing and elegant. Ross' brilliance is that he makes the complicated sound simple.

Simple is great for a cartoonist but my notes, such as they are, barely cover what Ross said. I hope that when the video is online or you read the PDF, all will become clear. The Q&A session was good too with contributions from Matt Ridley, Briony Worthington, Chris Rapley, Piers Corbyn and many others, so I will post an update as soon as the video/audio is available.
