Washington state starts pressing utilities to tack on a   "social cost of carbon"  to electricity prices.

What you need to know:

1. The "social cost of carbon" (SCC) is entirely bogus.  100% of our society depends on fossil fuels.

2. The social benefit of carbon is huge -- I estimate at least $1,700 per ton of CO2. But it's really incalculable.

3. Without fossil fuels our society would stop and billions would die. Fossil fuels have taken humanity from 1 billion to eight billion people living longer wealthier, healthier and freer lives than ever before.

Social cost of carbon?    Why not the social cost of bad breath, outdoor toilets, wind, or rain?
