Kerry Says Climate Talks Must Produce New Level Of Transparency

"MILAN - The upcoming COP26 U.N. climate summit in Glasgow in November must produce a "new level of transparency and accountability", U.S. climate envoy John Kerry said during a debate at the Youth4Climate conference in Milan on Thursday.

Kerry added more needed to happen to address the climate crisis, but that was difficult against the "powerful interests that want business as usual"."
