Global warming: 'Paris agreement will leave 99% of the problem unsolved'

By: Stuart Norval Follow 1 min

The 2015 Paris climate agreement is a highly costly treaty that will change little. That's the view of Bjorn Lomborg, who's been named one of the most influential people of the 21st century. Lomborg, who has his own think tank and has written several books on the issue, admits that climate change is real, but says the Paris accord is a tiny way of doing something about global warming. He argues that it will solve just one percent of the problem at a very high cost.
