Bjorn Lomborg, president of the Copenhagen Consensus Centre, explains in Prager University’s latest video that the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Clean Power Plan regulation “would reduce the temperature increase in 2100 by just 0.023 degrees Fahrenheit,” according to the United Nation’s climate model. Obama’s future pledges of carbon dioxide reductions would only raise that total to 0.057 degrees.
