How to tackle global warming - and how not to

Journal Editorial Report: Paul Gigot interviews Bjorn Lomborg on COP28.

Bjorn Lomborg gave a presentation on climate change at a conference in Colorado. He explained that climate change won’t be as costly or devastating as we often hear in the media, and how detrimental the cost of current green policies is in comparison. To sustainably tackle climate change, we need a new approach.
