Washington, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–April 24, 2014. Today, the Center for American Progress advocated in a new report that Secretary of State John Kerry has a prime opportunity to establish climate change as the unifying theme for the Arctic Council when the United States takes over leadership from Canada in 2015. Such an agenda would open up opportunities to make real progress toward ambitious but achievable goals to reduce climate change risks regionally and globally. It would both build on and expand the current agenda that focuses on resource development, shipping, and sustainable communities.
