John Kerry may need to scale back on his own emissions.
During the Climate Change Conference in Dubai, the Biden administration’s climate envoy expressed the need for global policy changes regarding coal power plants. However, his passionate remarks about the environmental impact of coal took an unexpected turn.
Speaking alongside Becky Anderson from CNN Abu Dhabi and Fatih Birol from the International Energy Agency, Kerry’s statements were interrupted by an unexpected bodily function, causing a brief moment of distraction. Despite this, Kerry persisted in emphasizing his concerns.
He strongly advocated for a global ban on coal-fired power plants, expressing frustration at the lack of action taken by those in positions of responsibility. Kerry’s growing intensity stems from his belief that the continued use of coal is putting people’s lives at risk on a daily basis.
CNN’s Anderson subtly reacted to the interruption, subtly covering her mouth. Meanwhile, Birol, the energy executive, attentively nodded in contemplation.
Kerry firmly asserted that the climate crisis and health crisis are intrinsically linked, highlighting the urgency of addressing both issues simultaneously.
