Overview of False Alarm

Climate change is real but is panic justified? Bjorn Lomborg's controversial masterpiece challenges alarmist narratives with data-driven clarity. Endorsed by Stanford's Niall Ferguson as "clear-sighted realism," this book exposes how trillions spent on ineffective policies hurt the poor while failing our planet.

When Panic Clouds Progress

What if the greatest obstacle to solving climate change isn't denial, but hysteria? While activists chain themselves to buildings and politicians declare climate emergencies, we're spending trillions on policies that barely move the needle. Meanwhile, tuberculosis kills 1.6 million people annually-a problem we could solve for $6 billion a year. The math doesn't add up, and neither does the panic. Climate change is real, but the apocalyptic narrative drowning out rational discussion may be causing more harm than the warming itself. Turn on the news and you'll encounter a familiar script: melting ice caps, drowning polar bears, cities underwater by 2050. Media outlets profit from clicks. Environmental organizations secure donations through catastrophe. Researchers studying existential threats win grants. Politicians gain power promising salvation. Together, they've built what might be called a climate-fear economy-one that systematically amplifies worst-case scenarios while ignoring nuance, progress, and scientific uncertainty. Climate change has become so polarized that Americans are more divided on it than on guns or abortion, making rational discussion nearly impossible.
