not everyone agrees with Guterres and the panel’s nearly 4,000-page Sixth Assessment Report.

The IPCC is an excellent source for climate science, but we tend to focus very selectively on the worst news, often overstating the effects of climate change on extreme weather events. Often adaptation is ignored, although it can alleviate much or sometimes almost all of climate damages,” Bjorn Lomborg, president of the Copenhagen Consensus and visiting fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover institution, said in an emailed statement to Fox News on Wednesday.

Although climate change in total has negative impacts, we rarely hear about the positive impacts, such as a profound global greening of the planet, equivalent to two more continents of green, each the size of Australia.
