Subject: Peter Gleick Reviews "The Skeptical Environmentalist"

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

As you may know, Bjorn Lomborg, a Danish statistician, recently published "The Skeptical Environmentalist" -- a book that purports to set the record straight on the true nature of our environmental problems.

At the request of the Union of Concerned Scientists, the Pacific Institute's director, Dr. Peter H. Gleick, has just written a review of this book with a focus on the issue of water resources. Dr. Gleick's review highlights the many errors, misunderstandings, misrepresentations, and conceptual flaws in Lomborg's book. 

Dr. Gleick's review can be found at:

http://pacinst.org/Lomborg_review.html

Specialists in other fields will also be reviewing selected portions of Lomborg's book. These reviews will be available on the Union of Concerned Scientists' Website at:
