The Skeptical Environmentalist and The Sierra Club: Lomborg and Pope Tackle Climate Change


Bjorn Lomborg, Author, Cool It; Skeptical Environmentalist

Carl Pope, Chairman, The Sierra Club

Craig Miller, Senior Editor, Climate Watch, KQED Radio - Moderator


Skeptical environmentalist Lomborg declares that global warming is a chief concern facing the world, but says we should focus our resources on more immediate concerns like fighting poverty and HIV/AIDS. INFORUM is hosting a pre-release screening of Cool It, the film based on Lomborg’s 2007 book, which outlines Lomborg’s climate solutions. Are these the same solutions that the Sierra Club’s Pope would offer up? Probably not. This pair of environment advocates will tackle the issues in an exclusive discussion. Find out what happens when the environment’s devout defender meets the climate change critic.
