Given the probably existence of several catastrophic “tipping points” in climate change, as well as feedback loops more generally such as melting ice reducing solar reflectivity, it seems likely that averting CO2 emissions in the future is less valuable than doing so today.
To do: Figure out an appropriate discount rate to account for this.

I like the idea:word ratio in this post.
