It’s true, and some of us have memories like elephants and remember how Lomborg has been at this for years. Lomborg is playing the climate denial delay tactic, and since his first book was published in 1998, he has been trying to slow, stall, and put the brakes on any binding mitigation.[0] This is one of many standard climate denial tactics. They admit that climate change is happening, but they don’t support doing anything about it. Furthermore, Lomborg has been accused by the Danish Committees on Scientific Dishonesty (DCSD) of fabricating data, cherry picking results, deliberately misusing statistical methods, distorting conclusions, plagiarism, and deliberate misinterpretation.[1] We also know that Lomborg has been funded by billionaires like Singer and the Kochs.[2][3] Lomborg is not and never has been a climate scientist. He’s a climate denier playing the long game.

Lomborg is not a climate change denier. You are a liar.

You’re mistaken. I suggest you hit the books and study the phenomenon. Climate disinformation has three components: denial, doubt, and delay. Lomborg is generally categorized as a climate denier because he deliberately engages in delay tactics to further the goals of the deniers. And the fact that he has been funded by Singer and the Kochs puts him in the category of climate deniers, each of whom are active using different strategies (denial, doubt, delay) to reach the same goal, namely, to continue business as usual and keep using fossil fuels to the detriment of the climate. You may also wish to review the work of Naomi Oreskes, Jane Mayer, and Anne Nelson, who have spent decades documenting these disinformation tactics in their collective work. Lomborg is not a trusted authority or expert in the domain of climate science, and anyone who tells us otherwise is ignoring the evidence.

There you go, lying again. Lomborg has specifically advocated for taking urgent action to deal with climate change. You cannot honestly claim that is denial.

> Lomborg has specifically advocated for taking urgent action

Lomborg has spent the last 24 years putting roadblocks in the way of taking action, all the while falsely claiming he supports it. This has been covered widely for decades. "While not explicit climate denial, [he] undermines climate action and the fight against the climate crisis." That helps the deniers meet their stated goals, and therefore is indistinguishable from denial by itself. "He attacks renewable energy, notably solar and wind, and other climate solutions while ignoring or downplaying the costs of fossil fuels and the effects of greenhouse gasses- melting ice, sea level rise, droughts, tropical storms, wildfires and other extreme weather events".

If you fall so easily for climate disinformation from the likes of Bjorn Lomborg, then you probably need to work on your critical thinking skills.

At least, he argued that there were other equally plausible explanations for climate change back in the late 90s and early 00s. He has been dragging his feet all the way like a good follower of the tobacco industry's playbook.
