Oslo, Clintel and Climate Change: A Few Remarks from a Klimarealist

Professor Kvalheim, Distinguished Audience, Ladies and Gentlemen, 

many thanks for bringing me to Oslo and to Norway. As the recently appointed second president of CLINTEL, I have received several invitations from Clintel supporters in foreign countries, but yours is the first I have accepted. I don’t know why. Perhaps because your invitation, as well as the talk with Prof. Solheim when I met him in Brussels last December, seemed serious to me. Plus, your name Klimarealistene – for someone who considers himself a realist – sounds perfect. Once again, many thanks.
