Brussels, March 10 : John Kerry, the US’ Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, has underlined the cooperation between Washington and the European Union (EU) on the fight against climate crisis during his visit to Brussels.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Kerry said “Constructive trip to Brussels. The US and EU are hard at work to address the climate crisis. I look forward to seeing our EU partners at the Leaders Summit on Climate on Earth Day, April 22.” On Tuesday, the former Secretary of State stressed that the world is facing not only a climate crisis but also “a moment of the greatest opportunity that we’ve had since perhaps the industrial revolution to build better to renew ourselves and our economies”, reports Xinhua news agency.
He described the upcoming UN climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, slated to take place in November, as the last opportunity for the world to come together and “build on Paris (Agreement)”.
Frans Timmermans, Executive Vice-President of the European Commission in charge of the European Green Deal and Commissioner for Climate Action Policy, hailed the return of the US climate action.
He said the EU and the US would be working to make a success of Glasgow, though it will be quite an effort to “convince other major players in the world to do the right thing”.
