‘Most of world’s emissions come from developed countries:’ US climate envoy – Roya News English

John Kerry, the United States' special presidential envoy for climate, said that all countries must 'step up' to do their part in light of the urgent crisis of climate change.

This came during a telephonic briefing on Wednesday only 10 days before the COP27 Climate Summit begins in Egypt.

The US climate envoy told reporters during the briefing, “What you see happening around the world now makes it more urgent and more clear than ever that we need to step up and get this job done – every country. No country has a right to be delinquent in not putting up an NDC [Nationally Determined Contribution], not strengthening it where they can, and not being part of this effort.”
