Bad climate policies proliferating: Sweden to cut transport emissions by 70% in 2030 Will cost $5bn (1% GDP loss) per year by 2030 if done *most* effectively Will cut 10.1MtCO₂e, so $500/tonne. Damage reduction is $31/t so $1 will deliver 6¢ of climate benefits Congrats

1% of GDP by 2030 is government's own estimate https://www.konj.se/download/18.db7893816ed591a4754c656/1575987447264/%C3%85rlig%20rapport%202019_kombinerad.pdf … Doesn't include transition costs + make a number of other, unrealistically optimistic estimates (like vastly increased biofuels won't lead to price hikes) p74 They even call this 1% cost 'relatively low' :)
