or more". With the damage already done, it is now up to us to manage this problem effectively without damaging the economy and people's lives. In order to achieve this we have to focus on developing non carbon emitting technologies, as we depend on fossil fuels so heavily. Therefore, having these technologies developed would stabilize the effects of cutting back on carbon emissions. In conclusion, these are the things we need to do so we can live in what Lomborg calls "both a low carbon and high income
