What specific differences in global warming policy are advocated by William Nordhaus and Nicholas Stern?

What will be an ideal response?


Nordaus uses a much higher economic discount rate in his analysis than does Stern. Hence, Nordhaus advocates a relatively small carbon tax, whereas Stern advocates a much larger one. Both economists believe that a tax on carbon would be the most efficient way to push society into reducing CO2 emissions.
