4BC radio interview with Bjorn Lomborg

Al Gore recently had a telling altercation with a journalist. The Spectator’s Ross Clark wanted to ask him about Miami sea-level rises suggested in the new film, “An Inconvenient Sequel.” The reporter started to explain that he had consulted Florida International University sea-level-rise expert Shimon Wdowinski. Gore’s response: “Never heard of him — is he a denier?” Then he asked the journalist, “Are you a denier?”

When Clark responded that he was sure climate change is a problem but didn’t know how big, Gore declared, “You are a denier.”

If you don’t learn from history, you’re bound to repeat it. Here in Saint-Denis, northern Paris, a history lesson is sorely needed.

Thousands are gathering here for the 21st international global warming meeting. Hotels are already near-full, broadcasters are setting up, protestors are preparing to roar.

All because this summit is "the last chance" to avert dangerous temperature rises, if we listen to the Earth League or a bunch of others. It’s going to be "too late" if a meaningful treaty isn’t negotiated here in the next few days, says the French president.

In a TV interview with France24, Lomborg explains why the Paris climate agreement is a highly costly treaty that will change little.
