“We are very sorry for the last four years,” US climate envoy John Kerry said

The Biden administration apologises for America becoming a climate crisis “renegade” under former President Donald Trump, climate envoy John Kerry has said.

Speaking ahead of a global summit on the climate crisis this week that will be helmed by US President Joe Biden, Mr Kerry said the need to tackle the climate issue was “extremely urgent”.

a few years from now, scientists determined that the Trump administration, had a chance to throw out the anchor. But, by the end of his administration, our environment sailed past the point of no return...........Wouldn't that be a Son of a Bitch............
