I saw this today "Abundant Energy Makes The World Better" and I think it is a nice talk illustrating how dishonest climate hysteric reporting is in the mainstream media. I do not agree with Björn Lomborg about everything, I do not believe humans are the main driver of climate change, but, the guy proposes solutions which I can accept as a climate rationalist, instead of the climate hysterics "go back to medieval times and taxes" strategy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWqv6RH-3WE Have a look, would be interested in your opinion. --8323328-1352494063-1722891630=:30846--
