The Skeptical Environmentalist
Tom Burroughes (London)  Book reviews

May I strongly recommend to fellow bloggers to go out and get a Green friend a copy of Bjorn Lomborg's book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, copyright 2001, p515, Cambridge University Press. A great book, written by a leftist former Greenpeace member who saw the light after reading material by the late, great and much-missed Julian L. Simon. Lomborg is that rarity, a Green with a thirst for the hard facts who is not afraid to change his mind if the facts don't fit a preconceived view. Already getting rave reviews.

Read the author's excellent summary at The Economist here.
