Whether the report reaches popular conclusions is irrelevant to whether they followed the scientific method.
I don't personally have an alternative, scientific conclusion. I haven't done any research.
The Copenhagen Consensus Center is investigating which environmental issues it is most effective to spend money fixing (what will benefit people the most, per dollar). Global warming is rated poorly. I haven't looked into their approach in depth, but I have read a lot of Lomborg's book (he's in charge of the Center) so I can speak for his thoughtful and careful approach.
