John Kerry fears Russia-Ukraine war will distract from climate change

President Biden’s climate czar, John Kerry, warned Wednesday that Russia’s war against Ukraine is going to distract the world from the climate change crisis and produce "massive emissions" that will negatively impact the globe.

"I'm concerned about Ukraine because of the people of Ukraine and because of the principles that are at risk, in terms of international law and trying to change boundaries of international law by force," Kerry, the U.S. special presidential envoy for climate, said in an interview on BBC Arabic, MEMRI reported Wednesday. "I thought we lived in a world that had said no to that kind of activity. And I hope diplomacy will win."

"But massive emissions consequences to the war – but equally importantly, you're going to lose people's focus, you're going to lose certainly big country attention because they will be diverted and I think it could have a damaging impact," he continued. "So, you know, I think hopefully President Putin would realize that in the northern part of his country, they used to live on 66% of the nation that was over frozen land."

"Now it's thawing, and his infrastructure is at risk," he added. "And the people of Russia are at risk. And so I hope President Putin will help us to stay on track with respect to what we need to do for the climate."

A distraction from global warming, not to mention a distraction from LGBTWREQ and CRT... All the stuff that is so impotent with this administration.

Reminds me of a joke my sweet old grandmother told.

Why do cows have such long faces?

You’d have a long face too if you got your tits pulled twice a day and only got to see the bull once a year.

LOL Maybe Heinz isn’t putting out.

No problem, Russia only uses “renewable biofuels” in their tanks and trucks.

Prototypical example of the fact that Democrats at their core are delusional. An objective, rational analysis and recognition of reality is beyond them. No culture can survive if lunatics like this guy Kerry have power and make policy.

I guess Putin forgot to file his environmental impact statement with the EPA.

IIRC the US military must do an environmental assessment for future military combat operations

He seems to be trying to distract from the fact that his son was Hunter Biden’s partner.

He is not stupid, my FRiend.

The climate change hoax is based on selling fear.

If people feared something real, like international conflict, they might put foolish climate change worries into proper perspective.

You cannot make up how MORONIC this gigolo a@@hole has always been!

Worried about global warming— from warfare- which YOUR asinine Iran nuclear “deal” “treaty” has made POSSIBLE. We f’n gave IRAN cash— PALLETS of CASH on US C-17s through Geneva, from the US Treasury— to get YOU and OBAMAUMAO their kickbacks paid and skimmed, and the IRANIANS paid the Russians for their Uranium to be processed. Fortunately the Mossad blew up their capabilities along the way— but that ain’t stopping the verrrrry French Jean Kerri’ surfer boy and noted Vietnam war vet.

Holy Crap! God Bless the FReepers on the ramparts— standing their Posts!
