Arek has embarked on a new journey in writing fiction with his new book Art of Deception. It’s a thriller with a philosophical premise about the importance of art to humanity.
Arek is also the author of A Climate for Denial and an international expert on climate change, greenhouse gas accounting and abatement, and has extensive experience in resource efficiency, waste minimisation, and sustainable development. He has spent the vast majority of his adult life working as an executive advisor to corporations and governments in the fields of environmental management, resource efficiency and climate change.
Since 2005, he has been the only Australian on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) roster of experts supporting the clean development mechanism (CDM) Methodology Panel and the Accreditation Panel providing advice on new methodologies and projects submitted for registration and validation/verification under the Kyoto Protocol. In 2008, Arek also became a member of the prestigious Joint Implementation Accreditation Panel.
Arek also still provides high-level advice to boards, advisory panels, and committees on:
• climate change risk assessment of major infrastructure projects and adaptation action plans
• resource efficiency and waste minimisation plans
• sustainable development project evaluation and implementation
• greenhouse gas reporting and abatement
• net-zero strategies, economic analyses
• staff training and stakeholder consultation.
