| I was in New York Times last year, but that was mostly because a Nobel laureate guy I know actually had written some pretty terrible things about me for wrong reasons. | |
| But no, they don't normally do that anymore. | |
| And it is a big shame, because honestly, climate change, like pretty much all other issues, it's not a partisan issue. | |
| It should be about being smart about our resources. | |
| It should be about saying, look, climate change is a real problem, but we've got to fix it smartly. | |
| We can't afford to fix it badly. | |
| Well, for the record, being smart is a partisan issue, but I won't develop that. | |
| Well, I would hope it's not. | |
| I think there are smart people on both sides. | |
| But again, I'm not American. | |
| But, you know, I really think being smart is something that both Democrats and Republicans... | |
| Ought to be able to agree on. | |
| But yeah, sure, there's going to be differences. | |
| The difference between ought and is is big. | |
| Your column is very important about the deaths, and I cited it. | |
| You will find this of interest. | |
| I read from your column on my show a couple of days ago, and the excerpts were then posted. | |
| On Media Matters and another left-wing site as an example of the idiocies of the right, that they would claim that more people are dying from cold than from heat. | |
| In other words, it was a self-evident idiocy that only the right could believe. | |
| And so I just want you to know, just reading your article got me into their... | |
| A radar. | |
| That's what I mean by smart is not partisan. | |
| Okay, or is partisan, I should say. | |
| So explain verbally what you wrote about. | |
| So a lot of people have been talking lately about heat deaths from the heat dome in the Northwest. | |
| And obviously, that heat wave was terrible. | |
| It's probably killed many hundreds of people. | |
| And there's nothing good about a heat wave. | |
| And certainly part of this is likely to be the kind of thing that we would see from climate change. | |
| So people are pointing out, see, this is climate change. | |
| This shows we need to do something about climate change. | |
| We need to change course. | |
| Right. | |
| Hold it there. | |
| Don't forget where you are. | |
| Bjorn Lomborg and climate change. |
