PART 3 - Michael Pawlyn debate with Bjorn Lomborg at the BCO 2009 conference

Mr Lomborg does distort statistics, as such it is not an unwarranted personal attack to note his willfull deceits.

Michael addressed the issue about the cost associated with cutting carbon emissions, saying that it can be cost-effective, and even save money. I may have missed this on the video, but I'm wondering what Michael's response is, to Bjorn Lomborg's assertion that little good is done, even carbon emissions are reduced (regardless of cost).

Mr. Pawlyn offers some valuable complimentary material to Mr. Lomborg's analysis of prioritization of solutions to global problems. It's a pity that he resorted to personal attacks, accusing Mr. Lomborg of willfully distorting statistics for the personal gain of making his case. All the while, Mr. Pawlyn builds the case for investing in green archtitecture, his own profession.

Both men have good ideas. I wish they were working together rater than arguing against one another.

Michael Pawlyn presents a strong coherent and well-informed case against Lomborg's recipe for fossil complacency.

He lands some big punches on prevarication, scepticism and denial.

Well said Michael, and well done.
