What Is Bjørn Lomborg Trying to Achieve?

October 27, 2013 by Keith Kloor | Filed in climate change, communication, environmentalism, select | 35 comments

https://www.wefairplay.org/2025/03/11/7x0bke1eze In the latest issue of Cosmos magazine, I have a piece on Bjørn Lomborg, who, as I write, shot to fame in 2001 with his first book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, a broad critique of the environmental movement that infuriated many ecologists and greens. The notoriety transformed the little-known Danish statistician into a globe-trotting public intellectual. Since then,… Cheap Ambien Canada Continue Reading…

Playing Defense is a Losing Strategy

September 16, 2011 by Keith Kloor | Filed in climate change, climate politics, communication | 5 comments

https://ottawaphotographer.com/uvqoqm5z I have a new post up at the Yale Forum on Climate Change & the Media that suggests Vice President Gore and like-minded allies are fighting their battle from a “defensive crouch,” which won’t get them where they want to go. Nor am I the only one wondering if Gore’s recent 24-hour mediathon is the… Continue Reading…

The Tao of Climate Communication

August 29, 2011 by Keith Kloor | Filed in climate change, climate politics, communication | 44 comments

https://www.infoturismiamoci.com/2025/03/g4dovvmwwp I’m not sure there is such a thing, but it’s probably good to know what your objective is. In this contentious thread, perspectives ran the gamut. One commenter observed: As difficult it is in this era of “Tea Baggers vs Marxists”, “Denialists vs. Warmistas”, “Conservatards vs. Mann-Made Glo-bull Warmists” or whatever other dumbass portmanteaus each… Continue Reading…

Randy Olson's Plea for Science Arousal

April 14, 2011 by Keith Kloor | Filed in climate change, climate science, communication | 18 comments

I never got around to writing about this recent essay from recovering scientist-turned filmmaker Randy Olson, so I’m glad that Andy Revkin has taken it up at Dot Earth. Do watch the 10-minute Skype video interview that Revkin also posts, where Olson says: The problem in the environmental and science worlds as far as I can… https://www.fogliandpartners.com/6leobp0 Continue Reading…

How to Win a Climate Debate

H/T: This meandering thread at Lucia’s, where the faucet scene in My Cousin Vinny was fondly recalled. Vinny Gambini: [Vinny hears a drip in the motel bathroom] Weren’t you the last one to use the bathroom? Lisa: So? Vinny Gambini: Well, did you use the faucet? Lisa: Yeah. Vinny Gambini: Then why didn’tcha turn it… Ambien Buy Continue Reading…

On Deniers, Warmistas, and Watermelons

March 24, 2011 by Keith Kloor | Filed in civil discourse, climate change, communication | 25 comments

Buying Zolpidem Online Nothing seems to shake the climate rafters like a fierce debate over the labels that combatants use to smack each other around. Although this thread from yesterday is still going strong, I thought I would break out a comment that rises above the scrum: My belief is that those who are affected most negatively by the… https://hazenfoundation.org/7c9mdpk0z0o Continue Reading…

On Climate Communication

https://www.tomolpack.com/2025/03/11/szas77edttf Everything you need to know about this AAAS session, called “Why Climate Communication Continues to be Colossal Botch,” can be summed up by this famous 40 second clip: Yes, I made that title up, too, but really, that’s what it was about.

The Word Doctor Wants to Help

January 25, 2010 by Keith Kloor | Filed in climate change, communication | 4 comments

Clonazepam For Sleep That wily Frank Luntz. What’s he up to? Last week, the Republican pollster advised enviros on how to sell the congressional climate bill. (Don’t mention polar bears or cap and trade, the bill’s centerpiece. Instead, talk about energy security and jobs.) That’s quite a turnaround from the guy who, in 2002, counseled the Bush Administration… https://ottawaphotographer.com/usnsy9pl27 Continue Reading…
