Saudi Aramco scientists helped write key IPCC climate reports

Original: Saudi oil scientists ended up working on most important climate reports

Saudi oil scientists, including staff linked to Aramco, have ended up contributing to the IPCC's most important climate reports, the Guardian reports. The revelation raises questions about fossil fuel industry influence over the scientific assessments that underpin global climate policy, and critics argue that oil-producing states have gained outsized sway over how climate science is framed and communicated to governments.

Why now: Fresh Guardian reporting on fossil fuel industry influence inside the UN's flagship climate science body has sparked debate.
