Yeah! Best Things First just named one of 2023 Best Books How do most good in world: For $35bn/yr save 4.2 million lives & make the poorer world $1.1 trillion richer—every year! Maybe a Christmas present? Audiobook, paperback, kindle, and hardback amazon.com/Best-Things-Fi…
The 29 climate COPs have done many things One thing that they have not done is led to an acceleration of decarbonization of the global economy
Just to clarify: this isn’t just the first time since WW2 that all incumbent parties in developed countries lost vote share. It’s the first time since this data was first recorded in 1905. Essentially the first time in the history of democracy (universal suffrage began in 1894).

Voluntary emission disclosure does not reduce emissions, but it does increase greenwashing sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
We are being gaslighted They tell you that green energy is the cheapest And yet, to afford green, the rich countries now need to pay the world's poor $1 trillion a year 10x what rich world struggled (and mostly failed) to pay Thread&refs: x.com/BjornLomborg/s…

Two decades of climate policy: near-zero impact —just 0.15% reduction New study: just 4% of climate policies worked (63 of 1500 had substantial impact) Total reduction 2000-20 in 41 countries was .08-.23% Thread&refs: twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The UN Climate Conference wants to transfer trillions from rich to poor Not going to happen Rich world won't Extreme weather death and cost decreasing Immoral to spend badly on climate instead of smartly on poverty, hunger, and disease graphic.com.gh/features/opini…
The @IEA has now classified people, who collect dung, wood, leaves and other biomass as "low-emissions" energy workers. They also get to boost the number of women in the energy sector, since the dung and stick gatherers are usually women. Burning biomass is a danger to public…
Europe’s auto-industry travails are painful evidence that net-zero climate policy is the worst act of economic masochism in the West since the 1930s. wsj.com/opinion/volksw…
📢Global Carbon Budget 2024📢 Despite some predicting a peak in global fossil CO2 emissions, we estimate growth of 0.8% [-0.3% to 1.9%] in 2024. Maybe a peak next year? Is it all bad news, or can we find some good news? 1/
It seems dubious whether renewables will dominate the 21st century. When measuring renewables in percent of global energy, almost all energy was renewable in 1800 Read my peer-reviewed article: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
In 2010, UN Climate Panel economist Ottmar Edenhofer predicted: “One must free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy.” Instead, “we are de facto distributing world wealth through climate policy.” #COP29 nypost.com/2024/11/11/opi…
Climate is all about taking your money Rich people just have to "pay up" What happened to all the promises of green growth, green jobs, and prosperity? The UN Secretary-General says the quiet part out loud reuters.com/world/cop29-su…
Unfortunately, the global climate process has lost its way. Most of the focus at #COP29 will be on the need for huge transfers of wealth. These were never going to happen, even before Donald Trump’s election — but now they are utterly unrealistic. nypost.com/2024/11/11/opi…
'This does not mean that climate change is not a problem. It does mean when you’re being told it’s getting worse and worse… it’s not true.' @BjornLomborg says the world is actually seeing less impact in terms of cost and the number of deaths from climate disasters.
Heartbreaking pictures of flooding in Spain underscore that we should help future flood victims effectively Cutting CO₂ is ineffective—costs trillions but reduces temperatures trivially by century's end Thread&refs: x.com/BjornLomborg/s…
Spanish floods are tragic — as they are everywhere But remember flood deaths down dramatically Globally, floods now kill 5,400/year, down from 400,000/year in 1930s Deaths from European floods down 7-fold to less than 100 per year today nature.com/articles/s4146…
