Lomborg was also interviewed about the IPCC report by Wall Street Journal editor Paul Gigot for the Journal Editorial Report, FOX News.

El Grupo Intergubernamental de Expertos sobre el Cambio Climático (IPCC) acaba de publicar su último informe sobre el clima, y las reacciones de los políticos y los medios de comunicación no podían ser más previsibles. En consonancia con la narrativa apocalíptica que muchos han desarrollado últimamente, el siempre inclemente diario The Guardian resumió literalmente este informe científico como la constatación de que la humanidad es "culpable como el demonio" de los "crímenes climáticos de la humanidad".

Die Reaktionen auf den Bericht des Weltklimarats fielen erwartbar hyperventilierend aus. Meist war die Angst vor der Apokalypse zu spüren. Doch der Bericht ist differenzierter. Wir sollten ihn richtig lesen und auch die Vorteile sehen, die der Klimawandel bringt.

I modsætning til de stakåndede medier er klimarapporten faktisk seriøs og fornuftig, og det er ingen overraskelse. Her er til gengæld nogle af de ting fra rapporten, som ikke når nyhedsmedierne.

Het IPCC-klimaatrapport en de reacties daarop laten duidelijk zien hoe eenzijdig de gedachtegang in de klimaatdiscussie is. De waarheid is dat mensen zich aanpassen, en daar is Nederland een geweldig voorbeeld van, betoogt Bjørn Lomborg.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change just released its latest climate report, and reactions from politicians and media pundits could not have been more predictable.

Fitting the apocalyptic narrative many have spun lately, the always-breathless Guardian literally summarized this scientific report as finding mankind “guilty as hell” of “climate crimes of humanity.” (Needless to say, the report never says any such things.)

Lomborg discussed US President Biden's executive order declaring that half of all new cars sold by 2030 must be electric on Fox and Friends.

Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it. That old quip, often attributed to Mark Twain or his friend Charles Dudley Warner, now guides most news coverage of severe weather. The media say that natural disasters are a result of climate change and we need to adopt radical policies to combat them.

Saying out loud what many people already think about electric cars, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s climate spokeswoman, Allegra Stratton, has received a lot of green flak. She says she’s not yet willing to trade in her old diesel car for a sparkling new electric, because it is inconvenient for her driving needs. In her honesty, Ms Stratton has highlighted the elitist illusion of much green thinking.

George Orwell kallade viljan att tro på motstridiga påståenden för ”dubbeltänk”. Men om vi ska lyckas lösa klimatproblemen, behöver vi ärlighet.
