In an interview with Sky News, John Kerry highlights the significant risks posed by climate denial and disinformation. He also discusses the UK's climate change committee and concerns about the country losing its global leadership on climate change due to certain policy decisions.

US climate envoy John Kerry has told Sky News that climate denial and disinformation is"costly, very dangerous and wrong".

The former secretary of state said:"Unfortunately, we have people around the world who are proselytising lies and distortions and non-scientific information."It creates confusion... and it's really costly, it's very dangerous and it's wrong. , Mr Kerry said:"My understanding from UK officials is that they are promising to stay on track and on the target of their reductions."There will be drilling. We are drilling too others are, because there's a certain demand that is built into our economies right now."Do you have to continue to pump? Yes, you do. Do you need to explore and go out and lease new leaseholds? I doubt it if you're doing the other things that you need to do.
