8:42Now PlayingIn this clip from a 2020 interview, John and economist Bjorn Lomborg discuss how we can best address climate change. Should we take heed of widespread alarmism?
Lomborg argues that climate change is real and it has a cost, but policies that address climate change have a cost too. Given state resources are finite, climate policies should be optimised to make the largest difference possible to the problem.
John and Bjorn consider the vital role that technology, innovation and adaptation will have in meeting challenges in years to come.
