OPINION:
The Climate Change Commission's plan for reducing methane emissions from agriculture might be called the Ninotchka strategy.
Ninotchka is the title of a movie from the late 1930s in which Greta Garbo plays an
earnest Soviet official dispatched to Paris to recover some Romanov jewels which have surfaced there.
Before she finally succumbs to the charms of leading man Melvyn Douglas and the City of Lights, there is a memorable scene where she is discussing with a couple of colleagues the purges going on back home. Picture Garbo at her most impassive as she sums up Stalinism in a phrase: "There are going to be fewer but better Russians".
