Germany is spending billions of dollars to combat climate change, but the money is largely wasted, one global-warming expert said. The county's efforts will turn back the hands of time by only 37 hours, he said.
Bjorn Lomborg is avidly courting publicity for his new film, "Cool It." He correctly observes that public discussion about global warming is largely between two entrenched camps of opinion.
