Kerry told theAp that next month’s talks will presumably end with nations still far from the target of the cuts in coal and oil emissions needed to ward off increasingly devastating levels of global warming, while acknowledging the efforts of the US, the European Union, Japan and others allies ahead of negotiations. He expressed the hope that a sufficient number of states will join the summit. “When Glasgow ends, we will know who is doing their part and who is not.”

He hoped that the US Congress will quickly pass a law for meaningful climate action: the Biden administration aims to regain leadership on the climate issue.

Kerry’s repeated trips to China and diplomatic efforts from other countries have so far failed to deliver promises of faster emissions cuts. China’s enthusiasm for coal-fired power plants helps make it by far the largest climate polluter in the world. “It would be wonderful if they all came to Glasgow and if they all hit the 1.5 degree temperature limit, ” he said.” That would be great. But some countries still don’t have the energy mix that allows them to do so. ”
