The US&#8217; John Kerry has hinted China, now the (distant)\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbonbrief.org\/analysis-which-countries-are-historically-responsible-for-climate-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">second biggest historic emitter<\/a>\u00a0in the world, should chip in.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">China&#8217;s Xie Zhenhua told a press briefing Kerry had not asked him directly during their informal meetings.

As he prepared for Cop27 the midterms were not looking promising for a climate-friendly majority to pass more support through Congress.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">On Wednesday, Kerry\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2022\/11\/09\/john-kerrys-offsets-plan-sets-early-test-for-un-net-zero-standards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sketched out a\u00a0plan<\/a>\u00a0to use carbon credits to finance coal retirement\u00a0and deploy solar, wind and geothermal energy in developing countries.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">Philanthropic groups Rockefeller Foundation and Bezos Earth Fund are interested in the idea and have partnered with the US State Department to put flesh on the bones.
