The Worth of an Ice Sheet - Paul Baer
Let me call your attention to an elegant article by Paul Baer which does a better job than I have of calling the Stern Report methodologies into question and arguing for something other than economics to be steering our decisions. I have not heard of Mr Baer before but I look forward to hearing from him again.

Baer, along with Tom Athanasiou, who may be known to you via Grist, are co-founders of EcoEquity. They have a website but no blog. Their interest is broad, but covers the ethical issues relating to CC, for example. They both frequently write good essays and comments and it's a shame these have to be searched for all over the place. Their overall stance on the issue of evaluation and response to CC based on economic measures is quite similar to your own, as I understand the two.
