Lomborg has come under so much attack.

" The man who demanded a recount". An interview with Bjorn Lomborg and balanced analysis of the controversy caused by his book 'The Skeptical Environmentalist'.

Scientific American (http://www.scientificamerican.com/)
In its January 2002 issue, Scientific American published the feature "Misleading Math about the Earth," in which four environmental experts—Stephen Schneider, John Holdren, John Bongaarts and Thomas Lovejoy—criticized The Skeptical Environmentalist’s arguments on global warming, energy, overpopulation and biodiversity. Lomborg has since written a detailed online rebuttal to our feature; we also have some responses to that rebuttal. All of these articles are available from Skepticism toward The Skeptical Environmentalist.
