4/4. Climate Pragmatism and Denial of Renewable Energy Constraints — Terry Anderson (Editor) — Andersonhighlights Bjorn Lomborg's "climate pragmatism" framework, which advocates rational spending prioritizing immediate human needs rather than attempting to arrest climate change through technological transformation. Anderson confirms that genuine market adaptation is actively occurring, citing declining real estate valuations in storm-surge vulnerable areas of Dade County. Anderson asserts that political objectives, including achieving carbon neutrality or total renewable energy dependency, demonstrate "total denial" of the vast and insurmountable physical limitations inherent in current renewable energy technology and infrastructure capacity.
