Special Climate Envoy John Kerry arrived in China Sunday ahead of planned
"in-depth" talks on climate change with the country's communist
government.

"We need genuine cooperation," Kerry said ahead of the trip last week,
according to the New York Times. "China and the United States are the two
largest economies in the world and we’re also the two largest emitters.
It’s clear that we have a special responsibility to find common ground."

Kerry's trip comes after he was heavily criticized for his use of a
private jet during a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing last week,
where some Republican lawmakers accused the climate envoy of hypocrisy.


A State Department spokesperson told Fox News Digital that Kerry "flew
commercially to Beijing" on a "common commercial air flight" but his
office has yet to respond to follow-up questions on specifics, including
any potential airline.

Kerry arrived one day ahead of the talks with Chinese officials, which are
expected to include meetings with China's lead climate negotiator, Xie
Zhenhua. It will be Kerry's second trip to China in his special envoy
role, coming after private talks with Chinese counterparts in April 2021
following a regional climate summit.

"This is not about China. This is not a counter to China," Kerry said
after those meetings. "This is about China, the United States, India,
Russia… a bunch of countries that are emitting a pretty sizable amount."

On Monday, Kerry praised the "incredible job" China has done on renewable
energy, according to a report from the Washington Post, though he urged
the country to stop building new coal-fired power plants.

China is the world's largest polluter, emitting over 10,065 million tons
of CO2 in 2019, according to an analysis by Climate Trade. That number is
nearly double the United States, which came in second at 5,416 million
tons of CO2.

Kerry, meanwhile, has faced scrutiny of his own carbon footprint, with
Republican lawmakers taking aim at his use of private jets in last week's
hearing.

"Bottom line is that the climate czar is showing a climate hypocrisy when
him and his family left a 325-metric-ton carbon footprint from their
private jet," Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., told Fox News Digital after the
hearing. "Meanwhile, Kerry expects the average American to be carbon-
neutral and to buy things like unreliable EVs they can’t afford."

Kerry defended himself during the hearing, arguing his use of a private
jet is "one of the most outrageously persistent lies that I hear" and that
he never "personally" owned a jet.

"Secretary Kerry has never owned a private jet, flies commercially, and is
actively working on initiatives like the First Movers Coalition, which has
helped major airlines like Delta and United in their commitment to invest
in sustainable aviation fuels that reduce greenhouse pollution while
allowing Americans to continue to enjoy travel," a Kerry spokesperson told
Fox News Digital after the hearing.

The hearings weren't the first time Kerry's private jet use has come under
scrutiny, with a Fox News analysis of federal data last year showing he
and his family emitted over 300 metric tons of carbon dioxide since the
Biden administration began.

Since being appointed climate envoy by President Biden, Kerry has called
on the U.S. to treat "the climate crisis as the urgent national security
threat it is," arguing for a transition away from fossil fuels and a push
toward green energy sources.

True.

Kerry has never purchased a private jet. However, his family has, and
that's the one he uses.

His family continues to use their Gulfstream GIV-SP when Kerry isn't
using it.

Kerry has been widely criticized for advocating for drastic climate
change rules while also traveling to events on a private jet that was
owned by Flying Squirrel LLC, a charter company owned by Kerry's wife,
Teresa Heinz-Kerry, and in which Kerry reported owning a more than $1
million stake on a financial disclosure.
https://news.yahoo.com/kerry-erupts-private-jet-mocked-165649979.html

A spokesperson for Kerry told Fox News Digital this year that the
family sold the jet to a New York-based hedge fund during the summer
of 2022.

Which is what lots of private jet owners do. They manage the jet for
him.

John Kerry is one of the biggest hypocrites on earth.
He is also an incompetent asshole.
His latest rant is complaining how the Ukraine war is affecting climate change.
Nothing about the people losing their lives.

This man is pure evil.
