Here's a pdf file of his argument in the guardian a few years ago.
http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2001/08/14/intro.pdfHere's some responses to his article. Hope it's ok to post letters to the editor like this. I don't have the URL, but it may still be on the Guardian website:

? Lomborg's contrarian attack on greens is part of a well-funded backlash against environmentalists. You should have informed your readers what his Danish colleagues say about him. For instance, Henning Sørensen, former president of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences, calls him "untrue" and "dangerous". Jon Fjelds, Professor of the Zoological Museum, University of Copenhagen, says his facts are "absurd" and "irrelevant". You also forgot to mention that Lomborg is a statistician. You know what they say about lies, damn lies and statistics.

? Bjorn Lomborg seeks to persuade us that the warnings of environmental collapse are fantasies of agencies which feed directly from prophesies of disaster. It is difficult to see how this theory could apply to Munich Reinsurance, one of the world's largest insurance companies, which last year announced that climate-related disasters have doubled every decade from £30bn in the 60s, when there were 16 disasters, to nearly £270bn in the past 10 years, when there were 70.
