The Economist's current issue has an informative article about the global warming debate. Bjorn Lomborg's Copenhagen Consensus gets discussed. Lomborg's contribution to the debate is important because he addresses the problem that given that, at any time, governments have a limited amount of money to spend on the world's problems. Politics involves prioritizing those problems. Kyoto's supporters appear to ignore this. They support a policy which will have almost no effect; the money could be used to better effect by spending it on other, more pressing, problems - like AIDS and clean drinking water. |
