The Mexican diplomat is stepping down in July after six years in the top climate job. Female candidates from Africa and Asia are tipped to be best placed to succeed her
By Chloé Farand and Joe Lo
Who is best suited to lead the world into delivering critical emission cuts this decade?
That’s the question being asked at the UN headquarters in New York. Mexican diplomat Patricia Espinosa is stepping down as head of UN Climate Change in July after a six-year stint.
Discussions for her replacement have been slow to get going. The job ad for her successor was posted on the UN website on Friday, leaving just over a month for governments to put their candidates forward before the 24 June deadline.
Applicants will need to demonstrate senior leadership experience, “strategic vision and an intimate understanding” of climate and development issues. Ministerial experience is a plus. The job is based at the UN Climate Change headquarters in Bonn, Germany, and the salary is $207,000, according to the latest UN pay grid.
With previous executive secretaries from Europe and Latin American, there is a push for African and Asian candidates to be given a chance. Female applicants are “especially welcome,” the advert stipulates.

I haven’t written much about Patricia Espinosa because she didn’t really do much, just kind of delivered a few dreary position statements and the occasional scolding for not doing what we were told.
Her predecessor, the Paris Agreement architect and communist revolutionary’s daughter Christiana Figueres, at least had some entertainment value. You could always rely on her to keep the laughs coming, with her frantic but mostly aimless energy, and her outlandish attacks on Capitalism.
You can view the new lineup of candidates by clicking the link, but be warned, that is a minute of your life you won’t get back.
Greta, of course!!!
Presumably the candidate will be screened for critical attributes such as gender, race, political affiliation, perceived historical victimization, fragments of indigenous genetics, and membership in the Sleepy Joe fan club.

Thank you Eric, for the advice. It took me a few minutes more than one because is good information.
All candidates are either lawyers or economists (or have been finance ministers of their countries). One has a degree REMOTELY, VERY REMOTELY connected with environmet, science, etc. (physical chemistry), the lady is very interested in a treaty on plastic polution… Oh, OK, there is also one “climate scientist”…
It can be expected that no one out of that bunch will understand what climate is.
Enough said…
Where do they find these horrors?
Of course they will get worse and worse. They are the product of a indoctrination system rather than an education system. They have been consistently rewarded for mouthing climate platitudes. In the corporate world it the same with “ESG” indoctrinated managers.
It works up to a point, but as the people at CNN, Disney, Netflix, Gillete and the grid operators in the UK, Germany, Texas and California can attest, sooner or later you run into reality.
