Bjørn Lomborg: in his own words | Environment | The Guardian

What the IPCC chairman says about him:

"What is the difference between Lomborg's view of humanity and Hitler's? You cannot treat people like cattle. You must respect the diversity of cultures on earth. Lomborg thinks of people like numbers … if you were to accept Lomborg's way of thinking, then maybe what Hitler did was the right thing." Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, interview, April 2004

"This book provides not only a reservoir of information on the reality of human-induced climate change, but raises vital questions and examines viable options on what can be done to meet the challenge." Rajendra Pachauri, endorsement for Smart Solutions to Climate Change, 2010

If Lomborg were really looking for smart solutions, he would push for an end to perpetual and brutal war, which diverts scarce resources and public focus from what Lomborg accurately says needs more money, including some of the research and policy projects recommended by the contributors to this volume. There might even be a few hundred billion dollars left to invest annually in new energy and mass transit economies, and science-mandated CO2 reductions. We're only two questions short of achieving those goals. Sounds pretty economical to me.
