Jordan Wingenroth
Research Associate
Jordan Wingenroth joined RFF in September 2021 as a research associate on the Social Cost of Carbon (SCC) team. In addition to contributing to the data science and scientific writing aspects of various SCC projects, Jordan leads the current effort to add SCC estimates pertaining to biodiversity loss to the GIVE model. Prior to joining RFF, Jordan graduated in 2019 from the University of California, Berkeley, with an MS in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management. His work there focused on stream and riparian ecology, including two journal articles advancing understanding of ecohydrological factors involved in sediment transport.

Comprehensive Evidence Implies a Higher Social Cost of CO₂
A multi-year study of the social cost of carbon, a critical input for climate policy analysis, finds that every additional ton of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere costs society $185—far higher than the current federal estimate of $51 per ton.

The Social Cost of Carbon: Reaching a New Estimate
RFF scholars lay out their new (higher) calculation of the social cost of carbon—an estimate of the economic damages that result from an incremental ton of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere—which can help evaluate US policy actions.

Working Toward a New Social Cost of Carbon
The social cost of carbon (SCC) can have a major impact on the US government's climate regulations, but estimating its value can get complicated. RFF researchers aim to make the best possible estimate using cutting-edge empirical and scientific data.
