That's nice for those ladies to go on taxpayer funded self-important jamborees at Davos to pontificate about how other people should do what they tell them to do while men stay back at base and do actual work. <In a panel discussion at Davos, where some 2,500 business leaders and politicans are gathered, U.N. climate chief Christiana Figueres said China "is going to leave us all in the dust" in the transition toward a more energy-efficient global economy.
