President Biden’s climate czar, John Kerry, warned that Russia’s war against Ukraine could 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 Monday 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 it could have a profound negative impact on the climate obviously. You have a war and obviously you’re going to have 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."
When in doubt, aggressive virtue signaling will beguile and fool the idiopolous! "First of all, notice this article admitting the factually reality of America’s “wars of choice”, but its failing to mention that these wars were illegal under international law—it failed to mention the truth that United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan declared explicitly that the US-led war on Iraq was illegal and breeched the UN Charter—it failed to mention the truth that the Obama-Biden Regime led 2011 war in Libya was in violation of international law and UN Charter—and it fails to mention the truth that the US troops in Syria are an illegal occupation force violating international law and the UN Charter." Not to mention the Soros/Obama Color Revolution in 2014 that put Ukraine in its present mess. https://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=193861&source=patrick.net

Putin is quite aware that Russia is getting longer growing seasons and more navigable water. He is not opposed to it.
