A leading member of the Climate Change Committee has been accused of hypocrisy for his jet setting activities.

The Telegraph report:


A government climate adviser who backed a tax on frequent flyers racked up 40,000 air miles in a year by jetting to environmental conferences.

Nigel Topping is one of the six members of Ed Miliband’s climate change committee, which in February recommended that ministers consider a new “frequent flyer levy” to cut emissions from flights.
