What are the single most effective policies for helping the world's poor? And what are we doing right now that's ineffective and should be stopped? The answers may surprise you.
In his new book "Best Things First," Bjorn Lomborg reveals the 12 most effective solutions to address the most pressing global challenges. He gathered the world's top economists to analyze the policies that would do the most good for the least amount of money. It turns out the United Nations and others are getting it wrong - climate policies didn't make Bjorn's list!
In 2015, the UN released its Sustainable Development Goals - a mere 169 promises to achieve by 2030! Yet as Bjorn explains, these are largely virtue signaling or ineffective vows the UN will never make good on. Instead of overpromising or obsessing over climate change, Bjorn says the evidence points to 12 clear and measurable policy solutions: eliminating tuberculosis, investing in education the right way, and establishing clear land rights, to name a few.
Bjorn is the Founder and Director of the Copenhagen Consensus think tank and one of the world's most influential writers and thinkers. He's made a career challenging misguided narratives, especially on environmental issues, while fighting to restore sanity and fact-based policymaking. His arguments are a direct challenge to the alarmism and doomerism surrounding us today, which is why KZbin and others try to censor him!

Another really good interview. Lomborg is excellent. Really like the fast pace and length of these interviews ...hits a nice sweet spot of incisive/key info dump going well beyond shallow/context skipping media, but stays just short enough to be easily absorbable.

Bjorn is incredibly based. His ideas exactly mirror my application essay for the Magaro scholarship! I like the Alpha mention too.
