UN environment chief resigns after frequent flying revelations

The UN’s environment chief, Erik Solheim, has resigned following severe criticism of his global travels and internal rule-breaking which led some nations to withhold their funding.

The Guardian understands Solheim was asked to resign by the UN secretary general, António Guterres. Sources at the UN Environment Programme (Unep) said that countries unhappy with Solheim’s conduct were holding back tens of millions of dollars, threatening a financial crisis at the body.

A draft internal UN audit leaked to the Guardian in September found Solheim had spent almost $500,000 (£390,000) on air travel and hotels in just 22 months, and was away 80% of the time. The audit said this was a “reputation risk” for an organisation dedicated to fighting climate change.

A UN staff union leader called some of the revelations “mind-blowing” and a prominent climate scientist accused Solheim of “obscene CO2 hypocrisy”.

That's because most of these fuckers don't even believe their own BS... some are just better at faking it than others.

Sounds like he was in a desperate scuttle to save the climate change ship.

Those countries not funding probably didn't have the extra dough to save the ship anyways

Does the UN have a carbon footprint or is the UN super special and they are full of stale air?

Are other countries ponying up carbon credits for the UN?

I was reading somewhere that the energy/dough spent on AGW/Carbon agenda could never in a million years be replaced,
by those energy conserving systems put in place.

Or the energy used to create and maintain an AGW agenda was key in creating the bulk of AGW, and will continue to burn fossily that way into the distant future.

That's enough with your circular logic. :D
