New Paper: ‘Regulators Should Value Nonhuman Animals’ – Seeks ‘to estimate the number of dog-years saved by a regulation’

By Cass R. Sunstein – Harvard Law School; Harvard University – Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) – Date Written: February 17, 2024

Excerpt: “If a regulation prevents dogs, horses, or cats from being killed or hurt, the benefits should be specified and quantified.  .. .Outside of federal rulemaking, an academic study finds that a Value of a Statistical Dog Life is $10,000. If the goal is to come up with some number, it would be an advance to use that one, perhaps as a plausible lower bound. But there is a natural objection. Is the life of a dog plausibly 1/1,000 that of the life of a person? … At a minimum, agencies should attempt to quantify benefits and costs to nonhuman animals even if they cannot monetize them. With the help of contingent valuation studies, they should also attempt to monetize those harms.”

The next big climate scare: Counting climate change deaths

Steve Goreham in Washington Examiner: 

In December 2023, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke at COP28, the 28th United Nations Climate Conference, and mentioned climate-related deaths. “We are seeing and beginning to pay attention and to count and record the deaths that are related to climate,” she said. …

On Jan. 30, Dr. Colin J. Carlson of Georgetown University published a paper in Nature Medicine titled, “After millions of preventable deaths, climate change must be treated like a health emergency.” Carlson claims that climate change has caused about 166,000 deaths per year since 2000, or almost 4 million cumulative deaths. Carlson admits that most of these deaths have been due to malaria in sub-Saharan Africa or malnutrition and diarrheal diseases in South Asia. But he goes on to claim that deaths due to natural disasters and even cardiovascular disease should also be attributed to climate change. If death from cardiovascular disease can be counted as a climate death, almost any death can be counted.

Climate epidemiologist Colin Carlson: “Five years ago it was ‘ten years to save the planet.’ Now, it needs to be ‘four million people are dead.’ Say it, say it, say it.
