==History== The project has held conferences in 2004, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011 and 2012. The 2012 conference ranked bundled [[micronutrient]] interventions the highest priority,<ref name="CC12 Outcome">{{Cite web|url=https://copenhagenconsensus.com/copenhagen-consensus-iii/outcome|title=Outcome|website=Copenhagen Consensus|accessdate=21 August 2023}}</ref> and the 2008 report identified [[supplementing vitamins]] for undernourished children as the worldโs best investment.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://copenhagenconsensus.com/copenhagen-consensus-ii|title=Copenhagen Consensus II|website=Copenhagen Consensus|accessdate=21 August 2023}}</ref> The 2009 conference, dealing specifically with [[global warming]], proposed research into [[cloud reflectivity modification|marine cloud whitening]] (ships spraying seawater into clouds to make them reflect more sunlight and thereby reduce temperature) as the top climate change priority, though climate change itself is ranked well below other world problems. In 2011 the Copenhagen Consensus Center carried out the Rethink HIV project together with the RUSH Foundation, to find smart solutions to the problem of [[HIV/AIDS]]. In 2007 looked into which projects would contribute most to welfare in Copenhagen Consensus for Latin America in cooperation with the [[Inter-American Development Bank]]. The initial project was co-sponsored by the Danish government and ''[[The Economist]]''. A book summarizing the Copenhagen Consensus 2004 conclusions, ''[[Global Crises, Global Solutions]]'', edited by Lomborg, was published in October 2004 by [[Cambridge University Press]], followed by the second edition published in 2009 based on the 2008 conclusions.
