... the Commission delivered their ruling just days before the Trump Administration revoked President Obama’s social cost of carbon guidance.

Thank you for posting this. Until now, I wasn't aware of this important "revocation". It's huge, since even a $10/ton "carbon charge" has the effect of more than doubling the real cost of coal. That's because it's $10/ton of the CO2 produced, which weighs 3.5 times as much as the original carbon/coal.

How does a ton of CO2 weigh 3.5 times more than a ton of coal?
