In 2007, the Nobel Prize Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), to Dr Alexander (AL) Gore the former Vice President of the US and Professor Richardson Samson Odingo which they shared, to honour scientific excellence and tireless efforts by 2500 scientists working under the leadership of IPCC to convince the world that global warming and climate change is a reality. Prof Odingo, who is one of the three vice presidents and who has served in the same capacity for the last ten years, he was awarded the prize for his role in raising concerns about global warming and climate change. His contribution to climate change spans more than three decades.”My training as a geographer enabled me to balance arguments between climate change and global warming at the international level.”
The award was in recognition of the roles played by IPCC and AlGore in laying the foundation for the measures that are needed to counteract the change. As the Vice Chair of IPCC, Prof Odingo has been responsible for supervising research and report of assessments on all aspects of climate change.
