Cool It - book/doc

The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming 

Any thoughts about Bjorn Lomborg, his book or movie doc?  Just recently heard about it.

Re: Cool It - book/doc

  • Lomborg is only interested in real problems, and he has no patience with media fear-mongering; he begins by dispatching the myth of the endangered polar bears, showing that this Disneyesque cartoon has no relevance to the real world where polar bear populations are in fact increasing. Lomborg considers the issue in detail, citing sources from Al Gore to the World Wildlife Fund, then demonstrating that polar bear populations have actually increased five fold since the 1960s.

    I have a really hard time believing this!

  • I read it. Bought it, unfortunately. Was wildly far-fetched and was based a great deal on generalities and poorly referenced facts.
