“What Kerry actually said (that was reported) was:
‘A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33% of all the emissions of the world... We can’t get to net-zero, we don’t get this job done unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution. So all of us understand here the depths of this mission.
Food systems themselves contribute a significant amount of emissions just in the way in which we do the things we’ve been doing... With a growing population on the planet – we just crossed the threshold of 8 billion fellow citizens around the world – emissions from the food system alone are projected to cause another half a degree of warming by mid-century.
This sector needs innovation now more than ever... We’re facing record malnutrition at a time when agriculture, more than any other sector, is suffering from the impacts of the climate crisis. And I refuse to call it climate change anymore. It’s not change. It’s a crisis.
We need economic, social and policy innovation in order to scale adaptation of these technical solutions and get them into the hands of folks in the fields of small farmers on a worldwide basis. This is the promise of AIM for Climate Summit.’”

“the climate crisis. And I refuse to call it climate change anymore. It’s not change. It’s a crisis.”
So not “global warming”, not “climate change” but a “climate crisis”.
As in everybody panic and stampede off a cliff.
