Well Mr. Rat, it appears that Rob Hopkins is practicing his own form of Scientific Dishonesty (or Journalistic Dishonesty). The global warming alarmists don't help their case by resorting to McCarthyism.

Lomborg, Climate Change and Energy Descent.
by Rob Hopkins

Bjorn Lomborg is Environmentalist Baiter Supreme, the one guy with some letters after his name who is wheeled out in the media to represent the scientific face of climate denial. Despite having been accused of scientific dishonesty by the Danish Committees on Scientific Dishonesty, he is still out there, touting his free market ideas.

note: the UVVU is the The Danish Committees on Scientific Dishonesty (sounds Orwellian to me)

The final decision of the Danish Committees on Scientific Dishonesty in the complaint against Bjørn Lomborg

17 December 2003: The Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation makes a decision in the case. The Ministry finds that the UVVU has made a number of procedural errors. The Ministry therefore remits the case to the UVVU. Furthermore, the Ministry’s decision states that it is up to the UVVU to determine whether it will re-examine the case. The Ministry explained at a later date that the decision of the Ministry must be taken to mean that the UVVU’s decision of 6 January 2003 is invalid.
