Bjorn Lomborg talks in Canada:

Global Crises, Global Solutions

June 3, 2013 The Vancouver Club, Vancouver, at 6pm.

June 4, 2013 The Petroleum Club, Calgary, at 6pm.

June 7, 2013 Windsor Arms Hotel, Toronto, at 6pm.

The "skeptical environmentalist" applies his passion for practicality to the premise that if we cannot solve every problem in the world, which ones should we fix first?

Using cost-benefit analysis based on years of work from 60 of the world's top economists, Lomborg takes you through thirteen global issues including global warming, health, food, education, and natural disasters. Using our own judgement in looking at some of the best ideas for each problem, how effective do you think these solutions might be?
