The governing council of The Energy and Resources Institute announced late Thursday that Rajendra Pachauri would be replaced as director-general of the renowned environment think-tank by Arun Mathur, an energy efficiency expert. Although no reasons were given for Pachauri's replacement, the council said the decision was taken keeping in view the interests of the private institute and its 1,200 employees working in different parts of the world. Pachauri, 75, resigned from the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in February, after a 29-year-old woman accused him of stalking and sexually harassing her while they worked together at the institute. He denies the allegations.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_Climate_Chief_20150724.jpg
