Resources for the Future

So I concede that there's such possibility, right? Right now, like the EU, again, one of the most stringent, they're pricing carbon at about 90 euros per ton of carbon.

Uh, estimates from the, uh, Resources for the Future, which is a great think tank in, in DC doing awesome work on environmental and energy economics, they say the price of carbon should be at about 190.

That's because the cost of a ton of carbon on society in terms of health costs, mortality, um, agricultural production, like it, it represents $190.

And so if you want firms to produce at the level that they should be producing, you need to make them internalize the whole cost that their pollution has on society.

Hello, and welcome to Resources Radio, a weekly podcast from Resources for the Future.

I'm your host, Kristen Hayes.

My guest today is RFF's newest fellow, Jesse Gorovich, who's joined RFF in August of 2026.

But in addition to that, in your case, I would like to ask you to say a little bit more about what drew you to working at RFF.

So

who you are in general, and then what brought you to Resources for the Future?

Sure.

So I started at RFF at the beginning of August.

The conversation is shifting, shifting mostly behind closed doors.

That was the consensus at a September 11th solar geoengineering workshop in Washington organized by the environmental group Resources for the Future and Harvard University.

Question.

Should everyone in these groups with an email address be sent a link to the dimming documentary and asked why they are hiding in the shadows and lying? If you sent a link...

But then when you look at the societal benefits as a whole.

And so there was an interesting study that was done by this group called Resources for the Future.
