Former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says the United States and other countries must follow China’s lead in shifting toward clean energy. Speaking as the COP31 climate summit opened in Turkey, Kerry argued that countries risk losing economic opportunities and worsening climate impacts if they lag behind. He pointed to China’s rapid expansion of renewable energy and clean-technology manufacturing. Kerry also said renewables combined with energy storage—and, during the transition, some gas—can be cheaper and more effective than relying solely on fossil fuels.
