Copehagen Consensus

Why wasn't this testimony before Congress reported more widely?

One of my frustrations in reviewing data supporting global warming arguments (both sides of this horribly polarized issue -- we need dialogue, not high-velocity sound bites) is that I'm still looking for hard data (something more than a computer model) that says, "If we reduce these emissions, then the global temperature will change because of that reduction."

Back to Bjorn Lomberg's approach (see link above), what can we do to give people more economic options? Greater wealth means more choices for environmentally friendly approaches.
