STOP BY AND BUMP THE FUNDRAISER THREAD

Nice post! We need more work like this, especially from former huggers. I clicked on the "statistical inquiry" link -- it was a favorable review of the book, well worth the read.

Index bump. Need to forward this to some misguided greenie friends.

Bump and thanks for posting this! I am a HUGE fan of Lomborg's and his book. I loan it to everyone I know.

Perhaps none of these developments will reduce Bjorn Lomborg's understandable unhappiness, but it will at least place the Danish Committees' pronouncements in a context befitting their seriousness.

Alright...Fetch...THE COMFY CHAIR!

Stanford Climatologist Steven Schneider started this smear campaign against Bjorn Lomborg. But Schneider is hardly always a paragon of scientific integrity. In a now famous interview with Discover magazine, Schneider showed his true colors:

On the one hand, as scientists we are ethically bound to the scientific method, in effect promising to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but - which means that we must include all the doubts, the caveats, the ifs, ands and buts. On the other hand, we are not jus t scientists but human beings as well. And like most people, we'd like to see the world a better place, which in this context translates into our working to reduce the risk of potentially disastrous climate change. To do that, we need to get some broad-based support, to capture the public's imagination. That, of co urse, entails getting loads of media coverage. So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramat ic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we might have. ? Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest."
