In 2002, Lomborg and the Environmental Assessment Institute founded the Copenhagen Consensus, which seeks to establish priorities for advancing global welfare using methodologies based on the theory of welfare economics.

Lomborg campaigned against the Kyoto Protocol and other measures to cut carbon emissions in the short-term, and argued for adaptation to short-term temperature rises as they are inevitable, and for spending money on research and development for longer-term environmental solutions, and on other important world problems such as AIDS, malaria and malnutrition.

In his critique of the 2012 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, Lomborg stated: " Global warming is by no means our main environmental threat.

" Lomborg claims to have consistently supported the position that global warming exists, but cost benefit analyses, as calculated by the Copenhagen Consensus ranked climate mitigation initiatives low on a list of international development initiatives when first done in 2004.

In a 2010 interview with the New Statesman, Lomborg summarized his position on climate change: " Global warming is real – it is man-made and it is an important problem.

* Kåre Fog's " Lomborg errors " website contains a catalogue of claims of errors in Lomborg's The Skeptical Environmentalist, Fog's opinion on Lomborg and his career.

* Article on Bjørn Lomborg in the online edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica.

The article was written by Michael Allaby, author of many ( although not peer-reviewed ) books on climate, who had previously expressed ideas similar to Lomborg.

Lomborg argued, on the basis of cost-benefit analysis, that few environmentalist claims warranted serious concern.

The Australian presents varying views on climate change, including giving space to articles and authors who agree with the scientific consensus, such as Tim Flannery, those who agree with the cause but disagree with the methods of coping with it, such as Bjorn Lomborg, through to those who disagree that the causes or even presence of global warming are understood, such as Ian Plimer.

The EAI was seen by some as a vehicle created for Lomborg, whose book The Skeptical Environmentalist argues that many perceived environmental problems are vastly exaggerated by environmental lobby and that policy responses based on such exaggerated claims are often misguided.

Commenting on the 2004 Copenhagen Consensus, climatologist and IPCC author Stephen Schneider criticised Lomborg for only inviting economists to participate:

A presentation by Bjorn Lomborg explaining the Copenhagen Consensus process to World Bank staff on October 12, 2004.

However, in 2010, Lomborg reversed his position and he now agrees with " tens of billions of dollars a year to be invested in tackling climate change " and declared global warming to be " undoubtedly one of the chief concerns facing the world today " and " a challenge humanity must confront ".

In order to achieve a true consensus, I think Lomborg would've had to invite ecologists, social scientists concerned with justice and how climate change impacts and policies are often inequitably distributed, philosophers who could challenge the economic paradigm of " one dollar, one vote " implicit in cost-benefit analyses promoted by economists, and climate scientists who could easily show that Lomborg's claim that climate change will have only minimal effects is not sound science.

Bjørn Lomborg (; born 6 January 1965 ) is a Danish author, academic, and environmental writer.

Lomborg spent a year as an undergraduate at the University of Georgia, earned an M. A.

In 1998, Lomborg published four essays about the state of the environment in the leading Danish newspaper Politiken, which according to him " resulted in a firestorm debate spanning over 400 articles in major metropolitan newspapers.
