He is also The Ideal person to push for action, he argues, because as chairman of state Renewable Energy company Masdar, like wind and Solar Power .

More Than 130 lawmakers from the US and EU wrote to the UN calling for his removal.
But others have defended Him - including the UKThe UK government defended Mr Jaber, with Minister for Net Zero Graham Stuart describing Him as " an outstanding individual".
Laurence Tubiana , a key architect of the 2015 Paris agreement on Climate Change , says Mr Jaber's team is " uniquely placed" to persuade The Fossil fuel industry to buy into a green energy future.
He secured a big agreement on Day One of The SummitCountries committed at least $420m for areas suffering The Effects of Global Warming , in what Mr Jaber described as a " unique, unprecedented achievement" and a " very good start" for The Summit .
" We have delivered history today, " he told delegates to widespread applause as the motion passed on The First day of COP28, three decades after the idea was first mooted.
Mr Jaber also urged countries to promise to make deeper cuts to their emissions, work together to triple renewable power and double energy efficiency.
He's also an Emirati politicianMr Jaber is currently The Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology of the UAE. He has also held other cabinet minister roles and has been the country's chief climate diplomat since 2020.
