Does anybody have a good summary of the results of economic cost-benefit analyses as applied to global warming? I was under the impression that many such studies came down in favor of action rather than inaction. Obviously reports paid for by private industry are going to be suspect, but not every study is funded in this way. Is the issue really economic modelling (which should of course try to make its assumptions as transparent as possible) or just the usual conflicts-of-interest in science?
