A free evening lecture! Lord Nigel Lawson discussed the issue of climate change followed by a drinks and nibbles reception.
This lecture will explore the science, economics, politics, and ethics of the global warming debate. We will explore the idea that the conventional wisdom on the subject may be flawed in a number of ways, that global warming might not be the devastating threat to the planet it is widely alleged to be; and that the remedies which are currently being proposed could prove worse that the supposed threat.
This lecture will explore a more rational response to global warming and outline a more conservative approach to this important issue which affects us all.
Lord Nigel Lawson served in the Thatcher administration between 1979 and 1989 as Financial Secretary to the Treasury, Secretary of State for Energy, and finally Chancellor of the Exchequer. He is a member of the Lords’ Select Committee on Economic Affairs, and Chair of the Global Warming Policy Foundation
