In 1994, Kovats was one of only 21 people in the entire world selected to work on the first IPCC chapter that examined how climate change might affect human health. She was 25 years old. Her first academic paper wouldn't be published for another three years. It would be six years before she'd even begin her doctoral studies and 16 years before she'd graduate.
IPCC chairman Rajendra Pachauri says this about how IPCC authors are selected:
There is a very careful process of selection...These are people who have been chosen on the basis of their track record, on their record of publications, on the research that they have done...They are people who are at the top of their profession as far as research is concerned in a particular aspect of climate change...you can't think of a better set of qualified people than what we have in the IPCC. [bold added]
Academically speaking, Kovats was invisible back in 1994. That anyone connected to the IPCC could have considered her a scientific expert is astonishing.
I'm sorry to say that that was just the beginning.

"Maybe she just has the right opinions."
Yeah, that, and the other time honored proglodyte method of tapping people with light to non-existent resumes, much harder for opposition research to gather ammo...
These people might be nucking futs, but they ain't without tactical scruples!
Too bad our side is still too interested in tone and playing nice...
Too many wars, not enough competent generals on our side...
