Bjorn Lomborg is a special kind of stupid. Apparently he’s never heard of Lazard, LCOE + firming, nor has a clue as to what ACTUALLY drives up ratepayer bills. He can’t be bothered to zoom out & see externalities of fossil fuels. Big shout out to @wsj.com for publishing this trash. - ThreadSky

Bjorn Lomborg is a special kind of stupid.

Apparently he’s never heard of Lazard, LCOE + firming, nor has a clue as to what ACTUALLY drives up ratepayer bills.

He can’t be bothered to zoom out & see externalities of fossil fuels.

Big shout out to @wsj.com for publishing this trash.

And WSJ accepted and published thereby putting their name and brand on it.

that wasn’t WSJ news desk deciding to print that disingenuous commentary / but it does further illustrate how desperation begets disinfo & Lomborg is an anti-expert

The WSJ is solely responsible for what the WSJ decides to publish.

Period.

The WSJ opinion page is basically MAGA propaganda with it's nails trimmed and it's tie straightened.

Just came across the same article. Pretty easy to find info on this guy’s true colors. Doesn’t say much for the integrity of the WSJ, not that I should have expected much.
