For those who seek regulation based on zero #CO2 only, CO2 causes only ~46% of global warming and hardly impacts the 4-7 million people who die from air pollution each year. We need #100% renewable energy to help eliminate air pollution mortality and slow/reverse global warming

Hi Bob and Marc. I’m doing some CO2 reduction calcs and want to add SCOC/P co-benefits. Do you know any current resources that can provide a reasonable and simple SCOC/P per tCO2e ratio? It’s not the focus of the study, so I need to keep it simple (for workload reasons).
EPA's BenMap generates comprehensive estimates of SCOP (health + economic impacts) (https://www.epa.gov/benmap ) EPA offers "reduced form" tools for roughly estimating cost of PM2.5, SOx, NOx, NH3, and volatile organics, etc. (https://www.epa.gov/benmap/reduced-form-tools-calculating-pm25-benefits …)
