In an interview, Dr. Pachauri readily acknowledged that he presses for particular actions, but said he does so as an individual. He said this does not present a conflict. “When I quote from the I.P.C.C. I make sure that whatever I say is totally accurate,” he said. “But that doesn’t prevent me from expressing my own views.

Copenhagen Climate Change Conference - Day Ten
IT is remarkable how popular you become when you have bottles of whisky to give away. Stop Climate Chaos Scotland had some whisky specially created to celebrate the Scottish climate change act.
It is called 2020 and is 42% alcohol and both Sam and I have spent too many hours fighting with the UN bureaucracy trying to get some
