The Climate Change Committee has appointed Emma Pinchbeck as its new CEO - a 37 year-old humanities graduate with no
experience in the energy industry except lobbying. Can the caliber go any lower, asks Ben Pile.
This week, the Climate Change Committee (CCC) appointed a new Chief Executive, Emma Pinchbeck, and it was as if a
coronation had made some incredibly popular princess a queen. Britain's army of obsequious green blobbers and political
hacks fell over themselves to pay tribute. Even former Secretary of State for Energy Security Claire Coutinho stopped
trading insults with her successor (and Pinchbeck's likely appointer) Ed Miliband to welcome the "wonderful
appointment" who 'speaks with both passion and expertise" and "always allowed space for thoughtful debate".
Emma is a wonderful appointment. She speaks with both passion and expertise.
We don't always agree, but at Energy UK she always allowed space for thoughtful debate. I hope too that she will bring
her background as a strong voice for industry to her new role. https://t.co/MQP4nTwNcZ

Green policymakers and the broader blob have long welcomed persons of extremely low caliber into their ranks because
environmentalism is a mediocracy that thinks itself an aristocracy. Whereas the constellation of institutions that
influence the design of policy and the delivery of vital infrastructure has in the past been dominated by people who
came up through their trade, today's wonks, lobbyists, experts and advisors have little practical experience, if any at
all. More often than not they are humanities graduates who can profess only "passionate belief" in renewable power to
qualify their status as 'experts' charged with informing policymakers.
