To someone with a scientific background it is clear that Neoclassical economics is divorced from reality. Thanks for explaining the detail of some of the false assumptions and the discussion around them.

You're welcome Mark. I hope to get finance for a research project that will do what should have been done initially: have climate scientists referee to climate assumptions in all 39 "economics of climate change" papers. I expect that they will not only recommend rejection of these papers, but they'll be willing to insist that their publications be withdrawn.

Then I hope those scientists will tell other scientists and we might get a movement to have Neoclassical economics thrown out of universities.
