U.S. climate envoy John Kerry is in talks with external partners to use funds from major companies to sponsor developing countries’ transition away from fossil fuels, a source confirmed to The Hill.
A person familiar with the discussions said Kerry will announce further details at an event at the upcoming COP27 United Nations climate summit, emphasizing that the proposal is for a partnership rather than a specific initiative of the U.S. government. Initial reporting by The Financial Times, which the person familiar confirmed to The Hill is “overall” accurate, would involve an independent, to-be-determined accrediting organization to certify the credits.
“This isn’t the launch of an entity, it’s the discussion of a framework which is intentional to allow time to work with all stakeholders next year to develop the details and ensure just transition safeguards and environmental integrity provisions,” a person familiar told The Hill. “The framework would be a program to scale up private finance to accelerate the clean energy transition in developing countries, through the creation and sale of high-quality carbon credits.”

Translation - Kerry is somehow getting a cut, and there is a buttload of taxpayer money somehow involved.
Is this part of that “democracy” thingy—the elites cutting deals?
If “renewables” are so low-cost, high tech and the wave of the future - why do developing nations need any help at all?
This is really an updated version of foreign-aid grift. 10% for all the “big guys” both at home and in “developing nations.”
We’ll loan them $$$ to go solar. Still keeping the poor man down.
It really is a religion to these people. They do not believe in God. They worship the earth and themselves.
Some of us are old enough to remember back in the early 90s when they said NYC and Florida would be underwater in 10 short years. And the only solution is to elect Democrats, give away your freedoms, and fork over more tax money.
It looks like we can’t get to 2024/2025 soon enough to restart Fossil Fuels and put an end to people like Kerry. That’s the only way it will happen.
10% x gazillions = Really Big Bucks.
Ka-ching ka-ching!
Yes, gotta break some eggs. Wonder if the American voters know that Kerry and his gang are screwing us over.
It will be too late when it happens. We won’t be able to do anything about it.
So John F-ing Kerry flies himself and an entourage around the world to show what responsible CO2 emissions look like in a primitive village that doesn’t have electricity. “We just have to adjust our standards of living.” LOL
(obviously sarcastic embellishment)
There is this legislature thingy. John Kerry has no business going where he’s going.
This lunatic is going to destroy the world!
force the most expensive energy, on the poorest countries, genius...
immobilizing and starving the masses by eliminating the use of fossil fuels all around the world will go far to protect the ultra wealthy evil doers that are setting it all up and forcing it down the people’s throats.
I heard a number yesterday...something like $136 Trillion
Kerry does nothing without a kickback; ask Ms. Ketchup.
John EFFIN Kerry...the guy who got fragged @ least 3 times...BY HIS OWN TROOPS. He was reckless..and a pussy even then.
The only way to survive these arrogant greedy thieves is to move to the equatorial regions of the globe where you won’t freeze to death or starve. When their ruinous destructive phase is over, your grandchildren might return. You’ll be long gone.
These are the same people who've prohibited "developing nations" from installing ANY energy source, out of fear that they flourish and demand benefit from their natural resources, rather than letting us exploit them for 2 cents on the dollar.
