Bjørn Lomborg: The Gay Environmentalist


Bjørn Lomborg is interviewed in this week's New Statesman.
He's arguably the world's most famous climate change denier/sceptic, mainly thanks to his 2001 book The Sceptical Environmentalist, though he's modified his views lately.
The NS asks Lomborg how his sexuality has affected his career.
"I didn't want to be the gay guy who talks about the environment. I wanted to be the guy who talks about the environment who happens to be gay. I think that has turned out pretty well."
He'll be pleased with the NS headline; "I didn’t want to be the gay guy who talks about the environment”.
