Fraudster Pachauri on climate realists; also helpful advice on how the rest of us should dress, shower and eat

Dr R K Pachauri's Blog

I receive a number of comments on the entries that I post on my blog, which regrettably I am not able to respond to, much as I would like to. Some, of course, often favour me with multiple comments and merely dismiss anything that I say. In particular, on the issue of climate change there are obviously some skeptics who are very active. But several others wish to know, for instance, what they can do in their own personal choices by which they can deal with the problem of climate change. Still others want to make career choices based on a desire to pursue subjects related to protection of the environment.

...Awareness among individuals will create responses such as switching off electric lights when they are not needed, and reducing the thermostat setting within homes at the peak of winter such that people do not have the luxury of sitting in their T-shirts under such conditions, but instead wearing adequate clothing. Most importantly, we need to make certain consumption choices that reflect our concern for the environment, such as deciding between taking a shower in the morning for a leisurely 30 minutes at a stretch versus an efficient and equally effective 5 to 7 minutes under the shower. And, of course, we also need to be conscious of our diets and to reduce consumption of meat, because the meat production cycle is extremely intensive in emissions of GHGs.
