Kerry to treat climate crisis as ‘urgent national security issue’
John Kerry, the former US secretary of state and Democratic presidential nominee, has been named as a special envoy on the climate crisis under Joe Biden’s incoming administration.
Biden’s transition team said Kerry would “fight climate change full time” in the role, which for the first time will include a seat on the national security council.
This elevation shows the president-elect sees the climate crisis as an “urgent national security issue”, the Biden transition team said.
