The likely response if the public and press were to be informed that members of the House of Lords or House of Commons, who had significant interests in the oil industry, were to be placed at the head of an independent committee on climate change are clear to all. There would be legitimate outrage at the potential conflict of interest.

With an issue as important and divisive as climate change, it is doubly important that the integrity and independence of the leadership of committees which advise our legislators is beyond question.

New models suggest wind power won’t cause global warming | Carbon Brief
Wind turbines have the potential to affect temperatures because they reduce wind speed, a process that has a slight warming effect on the atmosphere. In addition, the kinetic energy produced by turbines returns to the air as heat, after the electricity they produce is used. Previous studies, such as one released last year by the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry, had suggested that this warming effect could be so severe that it could negate some of the climate benefits of switching to wind energy from fossil fuels.
