I never know what to do with everyone's favourite climate denier, he is articulate and charming and doesn't seem like a sleazeball like so many of the others. But then I read John Tierney in the New York Times and realize that Lomborg is just proposing another rationale to make people feel it is OK to do nothing about climate change when there are so many other problems to worry about (which we also do nothing about.) Dave at Grist says about his appearance on Colbert: "Lomborg never stood a chance." I am not so sanguine, I thought he presented himself rather well.
