Pope Francis to Discuss Climate Change with John Kerry at Vatican
Catholic News Agency ^ | 5/14/21 | Courtney Mares

Pope Francis will meet Saturday with U.S. climate envoy John Kerry, who is also a keynote speaker at a Vatican conference on financial solidarity and climate change.

Kerry, who currently serves as the U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, is in Europe to meet with government officials and business leaders ahead of the Nov. 1-12 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow, the State Department said.

Pope Francis is reportedly considering a visit to Glasgow for the climate conference, and local authorities are said to be preparing for the possibility.

Ahead of his meeting with the pope, Kerry was due to deliver a keynote speech at the “Dreaming of a Better Restart” conference, a closed-door meeting in Vatican City on May 14.

The conference, hosted by the Pontifical Academies of Sciences and Social Sciences, has panel discussions on debt relief for developing countries and climate action to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit).

U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Raj Shah, president of the Rockefeller Foundation, both spoke at the Vatican event via video link.

Economists Jeffrey Sachs and Joseph Stiglitz came to the Vatican to take part in the one-day event, as did economic ministers from Mexico, Argentina, Spain, France, and Germany.

LOL. The Babylonbee is hard pressed these days to come up with satire. CNA has the rep in conservative Catholic circles as about that of CNN - that is to say none whatsoever.

Will the pope check Kerry's body temp?

Can Kerry purchase a one day license for that?

I’m sure they will discuss fire, brimstone, flooding but not a tax scheme that ushers in Marxism.

“panel discussions on debt relief for developing countries”

I hope they put the USA on that “developing country” list because that’s where we are going to be real soon with the unbelievable debt load.
