In order to discredit me, especially my arguments about the need
for humanity to quickly reduce carbon pollution from burning fossil fuels,
someone has accused me of falsely portraying myself as a Nobel laureate. I have
never presented myself as a laureate. I was, indeed, a contributing author of
the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, especially in the 1990s, and
this organization was co-awarded the Nobel Peace Prize along with Al Gore in
2007.
