I can't see that Europe has much better climate policies than US. Loads of anti-fracking anti nuclear wind-NIMBYism. Their carbon trading system only gestures at a tax on net emissions. They are totally on board with the failed COP process. Their policies no more satisfy cost benefit analysis than ours do.

The "liberal" way to address climate change is just like other economic issue. The emission CO into the atmosphere will cause harm. We need to model the costs and benefits of different policies and argue for the set of least cost solutions. No different from tx reform or trade policy or immigration.
