ROME — John Kerry has congratulated Pope Francis for a new letter on the “climate crisis” in which the pope calls out the United States for its high per capita carbon emissions.In particular, Kerry held up the pope’s allegation that the earth is “nearing the breaking point,” his assertion that diplomacy “must be part of the solution,” and his hope that COP28 will mark “a change of direction” and not just “pasting and papering over cracks.
The pope’s letter, published Wednesday, slammed skeptics of climate alarmism and singled out the United States by name for its contribution to climate change. “No one can ignore the fact that in recent years we have witnessed extreme weather phenomena, frequent periods of unusual heat, drought and other cries of protest on the part of the earth that are only a few palpable expressions of a silent disease that affects everyone,” he wrote.
Pope Francis has “remarkable leverage” on the question of global warming, Kerry asserted, “because he has constantly been an outspoken and engaged advocate on this issue; he believes it very deeply.”
