Negative Positive
Title: Prioritization
Review: I have not come across any criticisms on this book which dispute any of the facts or methodologies used by Lomborg. Instead, they are driven by emotion. The mentality of the people who do not like this book is that all animals must be saved, we cannot tolerate any deaths due to pesticides, we must vastly reduce carbon dioxide emissions, etc.The primary point of the book is that we do not have infinite wealth, so we need to prioritize our spending so it has the greatest positive impact for the planet and human population. The only way to do this is to have a clear understanding of which problems are most important, so we can prioritize our spending on those issues.To those who say that every environmental problem is important, I doubt that you would put your money (unbearably higher taxes and higher prices for everything else you enjoy) where your mouth is.
Is the review positive or negative?
