EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Lex Fridman Podcast, featuring Bjørn Lomborg and Andrew Revkin, Climate Change Debate: Bjørn Lomborg and Andrew Revkin | Lex Fridman Podcast #339 explores Climate Policy, Not Climate Doom: Rethinking Risk, Energy, and Action Lex Fridman hosts Bjørn Lomborg and climate journalist Andrew Revkin for a wide-ranging, non-adversarial conversation about climate change, risk, and policy. They argue that while human-caused global warming is real and important, public discourse has become dominated by unhelpful extremes: denial on one side and apocalyptic doom on the other.
