Not surprising. The IPCC’s reports have been misleading the public for a while now, so it only makes sense for them to appoint an industry executive to write the reports. A bit odd choice of industry given their history, but gotta balance it out, I guess.

From the link above:

Thousands of scientists contribute to the work of the UN IPCC and it has a transparent and open process by which the work of the scientists is reviewed by experts and governments around the world. Therefore, the politicization of the UN IPCC’s reports is quite blatant as there is recorded evidence of political operatives significantly altering language, meaning and conventions in the content of the scientific reports.
