Bjorn Lomborg confronts Al Gore on global warming
Oh this is priceless. Bjorn Lomborg, who wrote the tremendous book The Skeptical Environmentalist, was in the audience at the Wall Street Journal's ECOnomics Summit where Al Gore was speaking. In what I guess was some kind of Q and A session Lomborg challenged Al Gore to a debate, not even on global warming (Lomborg actually says there is some amount of global warming with human factors playing some role), but rather on whether money would be better spent on economy-wrecking measures such as the Kyoto Protocols would impose or other measures that might actually help people. Gore couldn't even handle the question. He completely fumbled it. The Journal posted the video here.
