Title: 2050 working assumption Soil management Up to 2020 2010-2020

Content: The 2050 pathways model assumes up to 1.9 MtCO2e abatement by 2020, compared with 2007 soil emissions.

The MacLoed et al 2010 cost source has a cummulative average cost[i.e., not the marginal cost of the final tonne, but the total area under the marginal curve divided by the total number of tonnes] of abating 1.9 MtCO2e of -£140/tCO2e (optimistic 2022 curve) to £7/tCO2e (pessimistic 2022 curve).

It is unclear whether it is valid in our methodology to have negative abatement costs, so for the moment assuming the range starts at zero.

Content: The 2050 pathways model assumes up to 1.9 MtCO2e abatement by 2020, compared with 2007 soil emissions.

The MacLeod et al 2010 cost source has a cumulative average cost[i.e., not the marginal cost of the final tonne, but the total area under the marginal curve divided by the total number of tonnes] of abating 1.9 MtCO2e of -£140/tCO2e (optimistic 2022 curve) to £7/tCO2e (pessimistic 2022 curve).
