Krakovska addressed the conclave of scientists who had gathered online to approve the summary of the latest “While emissions of greenhouse gas have changed the energy balance of the planet, the ease of receiving energy from burning coal, oil and gas has changed the balance of power in the human world. We cannot change laws of the physical world but it is our responsibility to change laws of human civilization towards a climate resilient future.”
When war broke out last week, she wrote to the head of IPCC to say her delegation would “continue to work if we have an internet connection and no missiles over our heads.” But some of her colleagues were forced to seek safety from Russian bombs.During the online conference, Russian researcher Oleg Anisimov, the head of climate change research at Russia’s Hydrological Institure, made an unexpected comment to the group.
