Smart Solutions for a Better World

Published by SOFW

Interview with Bjørn Lomborg "An approach to doing good for the world, based on cost-effectiveness considerations – for some people this means a contradiction in terms, for others it is a possible tool for shifting the switches for present and future scenarios. In every case, Bjørn Lomborg, the Director of the Copenhagen Consensus Center and adjunct Professor at Copenhagen Business School will give rise to lively debates with his key-note lecture in Barcelona. Interested attendees of CESIO 2013 can find some extracts of his general ideas in this interview."

Dvadsať rokov zlyhaní

Published by SME

2013-04-27 Je vcelku ľahké ukázať, že dnešné postupy sú jednoducho hlúpe. Stoja veľa a úžitok je minimálny. V diskusiách o klíme sa pohybujem už viac ako desať rokov, ale dodnes ma udivuje, ako ju vedieme. Skúsme to zmeniť. Globálne otepľovanie je skutočné a z väčšej časti spôsobené ľuďmi, ale naše riešenia zlyhávajú. Bol som jedným z najväčších kritikov Kjótskeho protokolu a to ešte v čase, keď bol považovaný za evanjelium. Dnes nemá Kjóto priaznivcov a nikto si ani nespomína, že by naň niekedy veril.

The End of the EU's Cap-and-Trade Affair

Published by Wall Street Journal

2013-04-21 For some time, a divorce has been on the horizon. For years these sweethearts have soaked up the limelight on the international stage, but the sordid reality has sunk in. On Tuesday, a vote in the European Parliament confirmed that the love affair between the European Union and its climate policy may be well and truly over. This could turn out to be very good news for the world's climate.

Earth Day's good news

Published by USA Today

2013-04-22 USA Today Year after year, we are treated to a message of environmental doom and gloom and admonitions on Earth Day. On the back of this sentiment in wealthy countries, governments have invested billions of dollars in inefficient, feel-good policies such as subsidizing solar panels and electric cars. But there are far better ways to improve environmental prospects for humanity and our planet. On Earth Day, we need more fracking, more wealth, smarter investments and fewer inefficient subsidies.

Warum der Schutz des globalen Klimas sinnlos ist

Published by NZZ am Sonntag

2013-04-21 Die Erde erwärmt sich. Doch seit 20 Jahren scheitern alle Versuche, den Ausstoss von Treibhausgasen zu bremsen. Die Klimaschutzpolitik ist ein Fiasko, weil sie gegen jede ökonomische Vernunft ist. Stattdessen sollten wir unsere finanziellen Mittel in die Erforschung billigerer grüner Technologien stecken.  Von Bjørn Lomborg

'Un día el automóvil eléctrico será un gran producto, pero no ahora'

Published by El Tiempo

2013-04-17 Durante décadas, la idea de un automóvil eléctrico ha conquistado la imaginación de innovadores -incluidos desde hace más de un siglo Henry Ford y Thomas Edison.  Celebridades, expertos y líderes políticos han proyectado estos vehículos como la apoteosis de un futuro responsable con el medioambiente. La canciller alemana, Ángela Merkel, anunció que habría un millón de automóviles eléctricos en la Autobahn para 2020. Del mismo modo, el presidente Barack Obama aseguró que habría un millón de autos eléctricos en los Estados Unidos -pero cinco años antes.

2013-04-11 Someday, the electric car will, indeed, be a great product – just not now. It costs too much; it is inconvenient; and its environmental benefits are negligible (and, in some cases, non-existent).

Inundaciones: no al uso político del clima

Published by Clarin

2013-04-08 Por Bjørn Lomborg

Las inundaciones ocurridas la semana pasada en Buenos Aires y La Plata son una tragedia. Muchos dicen que es por el calentamiento global y exigen que se reduzcan las emisiones de CO2. Están equivocados. Usan al clima como el chivo expiatorio. Y desconocen políticas mucho mejores. Este mal consejo causará más muertes y más destrucción en el futuro. (...)
