"South Korea's Hoesung Lee, chosen on Tuesday to head the U.N.'s panel of climate scientists, favors wider pricing of carbon dioxide output to curb emissions of the greenhouse gases the group blames for global warming.
He told Reuters in a telephone interview he would seek to open the Nobel Peace Prize winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), traditionally led by scientists from Europe and North America, to experts from around the world.
He added the IPCC would also strive to include more women scientists in its work, make its science better known and narrow down uncertainties about the future pace of global warming."
