Seriously? John Kerry apologized for lack of action on global warming when the global temperature has been static for 16 years?
And I have to say that I regret that my own country – and President Obama knows this and is committed to changing it –needs to do more and we are committed to doing more. And we come here to Kiruna with a great understanding of the challenge to the Arctic as the ice melts, as the ecosystem is challenged, the fisheries, and the possibilities of increased commercial traffic as a result of the lack of ice raises a whole set of other issues that we need to face up to.
I assume that an assistant under-secretary of something gets to break it to the Syrians that going from zero to 80,000+ casualties in two years puts them in second place in the issues we need to focus on.
Or are new drapes in second?
