I have only just become aware of him myself.

He is a British journalist, author and businessman. He writes about the environment, science and economics and is 'outspoken' regarding climate change. Here is a little excerpt from Wikipedia about the subject of climate change:
'I have written about climate change and energy policy for more than 25 years. I have come to the conclusion that current energy and climate policy is probably more dangerous, both economically and ecologically, than climate change itself. This is not the same as arguing that climate has not changed or that mankind is not partly responsible. That the climate has changed because of man-made carbon dioxide I fully accept. What I do not accept is that the change is or will be damaging, or that current policy would prevent it.'

Here are some links that may be of interest to some here.

I don't pay attention to his climate change stuff, but his genetics books are solid.

The amount of research that would need to go into writing as densely as he does on such topics astonishes me.
