What ever that means.

On the other hand for those people who don't "believe" that carbon emissions are important then it doesn't matter so they can just ignore all this science stuff. Don't worry about it!
The increase of the so-called social cost of carbon, to $38 a metric ton in 2015 from $23.80, adjusts the calculation the government uses to weigh costs and benefits of proposed regulations. The figure is meant to approximate losses from global warming such as flood damage and diminished crops.
