It's simply impossible to make so many 'mistakes' that all work in the same direction - to stall any meaningful action to climate change mitigation.<br /><br />Never trust Bjorn Lomborg.Radivonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484636121528981760.post-50205287485223121992013-03-19T03:22:18.461+11:002013-03-19T03:22:18.461+11:00Thanks for the response editorial!

I was just ranting to myself after reading the article and some kind soul in the comments section was nice enough to link me here.<br /><br />One part of Lomborg's piece that you didn't bring up was when he suggested removing subsidies for wind and solar. I'm not sure how he can say this with a straight face and no mention of fossil fuel subsidies. I've read numerous studies concluding that the removal of all government energy subsidies would result in an increase of renewable energy (sorry I can't find any to link here).<br /><br />In addition, I organized an Earth Hour event three years ago. Every single piece of their literature says the goal of the organization is to raise awareness and start a discussion. They specifically wanted event organizers to stay away from claims of how much energy this one hour of darkness would say. This combined with Lomborg's claims of Earth Hour participants turning off lights but still watching TV, using computers, etc., it became clear to me he had not visited their website or done really any research on the event.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15453965454971403447noreply@blogger.com
