Lomborg on smarter goals for the UN in media around the world

Subsequent to Bjorn Lomborg's article on the UN Sustainable Development Goals and New York Times' reporting last month, media around the world have interviewed Lomborg on the Copenhagen Consensus Center's Post-2015 Consensus project.

The newspapers of record in France and Norway, Le Monde and Aftenposten (on two full pages) both reported on Lomborg's efforts to prioritize global aid spending in the most cost-effective way.

An interview with the world's fourth-largest news agency EFE is available both in Spanish (e.g. La Informacion) and Catalan (La Vanguardia).

Lomborg's article was also published in Denmark (Jyllands-Posten) and Portugal (Jornal de Negocios).
