This one wasn't a surprise; and apparently her citizenship in a small Latin American country, rather than a economically powerful African country, played a role in the pick. As I noted earlier, she brings gravitas as a woman and a mother to this job; she's directly involved in the well-being of the next generation. She definitely has sufficient credentials; being a "Hero of the Planet" doesn't hurt!
I have nothing against Marthinus van Schalkwyk, but given the ability of the denier side to make crap out of gold, they'd certainly have made fun of his current job as tourism minister. And the current state of climate, with temperature ever-climbing, doesn't need any more detractions. Or distractions.
