The fallacious "Social Cost of Carbon" with David Kreutzer

The Biden Administration has just announced $51/ton "Social Cost of Carbon." On this week's Power Hour, Alex Epstein interviews David Kreutzer, Senior Economist at the Institute for Energy Research, about the many methodological and moral problems with this metric, including:

- How the SCC is radically changed by arbitrary decisions about its "discount rate"
