John Stossel Show with Lomborg

Jim Brown of CBC's The 180 interviews Dr. Bjorn Lomborg.

"There are generally two schools of thought when it comes to climate change: it is bad, or it doesn't exist. But Bjorn Lomborg wants that to change. He says it's important to recognize that there are some benefits to climate change, and to come up with more innovative ways to tackle the negatives.

He criticized Gore's film as having "some very obvious mistakes, like the argument that we're going to see six meters of sea-level rise," he said. "They (Nobel committee) have a unique platform in getting people's attention on this issue, and I regret they have used it to make a political statement." Read full interview
