A whole lot of absurdity packed into one article

Yvo de Boer, global climate [fraud promoter]

So how did a Dutch public housing bureaucrat wind up at the epicentre of the fight to slow global warming?

"I had a policy in my life up to then to try something completely different every three or four years," de Boer said of his decision in 1994 to apply for a job within the Dutch environment ministry to head the climate change department.

"To my great amazement, I got the job. I knew nothing about climate change, absolutely nothing," he said in an interview.

...
For some diplomats, however, it is evidence that he has overstepped his role as a neutral facilitator.
