Secretary Kerry builds support for a strong agreement that's designed to ladder up ambition over time
EDF statement from Fred Krupp, Environmental Defense Fund
“Doubling the US commitment to adaptation finance is equitable and fair. With this announcement, Secretary Kerry builds support for a strong agreement that’s designed to ladder up ambition over time. Transparency, no double counting of reductions, and stock-taking every five years are the essential elements. We can’t leave Paris without a credible framework to ratchet up the ambition—and the sooner all countries, including the United States, come back to the table, the more likely they are to step up their game.”
- Fred Krupp, President, Environmental Defense Fund
