"There are many examples demonstrating how societies can draw the right conclusions on the basis of scientific facts: acid rain, ozone depletion and smoking,” he said. “In retrospect, it often becomes clear how misguided resistance by interest groups is.

Wolfgang Feist welcomes latest IPCC climate change report
Passivhaus co-founder Prof Wolfgang Feist has welcomed the publication of the latest IPCC climate change report, and called for urgent action to reduce emissions, reports Jeff Colley for Passive House + magazine.
Prof Feist, who is currently attending the Passive House North 2013 conference in Vancouver said: "There is no longer any scientifically-founded doubt that the planet's climate is changing due to rising carbon dioxide emissions. Science is now in the position to acknowledge the influence of human activities on the climate. The clarity of the facts presents an opportunity to prevent serious consequences."
