(Där kan man även läsa lite av boken)<!--QuoteBegin--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->In The Skeptical Environmentalist Bjørn Lomborg challenges widely held beliefs that the global environment is progressively getting worse. Using statistical information from internationally recognized research institutes, Lomborg systematically examines a range of major environmental issues and documents that the global environment has actually improved. He supports his argument with over 2900 footnotes, allowing discerning readers to check his sources.
Lomborg criticizes the way many environmental organizations make selective and misleading use of scientific data to influence decisions about the allocation of limited resources. The Skeptical Environmentalist is a useful corrective to the more alarmist accounts favored by green activists and the media.
"... probably the most important book on the environment ever written."
review in The Daily Telegraph, UK, 27-8-01
"This is one of the most valuable books on public policy - not merely on environmental policy - to have been written for the intelligent general reader in the past ten years. ... The Skeptical Environmentalist is a triumph.
review in The Economist, 6-9-01
"The Skeptical Environmentalist is the most significant work on the environment since the appearance of its polar opposite, Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, in 1962. It's a magnificent achievement."
review in Washington Post Book World, 21-10-01<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Riktig bra faktabok som tar upp väldigt aktuella ämnen
Man får en helt annan bild av världen än den som diverse miljörörelser vill att vi ska se/höra. Gillar man att diskutera med "miljövänner" så är den perfekt <!--emo&:)-->
