Global warming denialist Bjorn Lonborg, while not admitting he’s a denialist, bashes the idea of cutting CO2 emissions, claiming it will be more harm than help to the world.
He cites the specter of economic protectionism, and claims the costs of radical CO2 cuts will be nearly $50 trillion, because “climate protectionism” will cost that much. Of course, he has no proof for such numbers.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
