Kerry Calls Out Chevron for Lagging on #Climate Action #COP28

US climate envoy John Kerry criticized some US oil producers for not doing enough to combat global warming and singled out Chevron Corp. for particular scrutiny.

“We have no real evidence that they and a lot of others are doing what every company needs to do,” Kerry said at the Bloomberg Green summit at COP28 in Dubai on Tuesday. Oil and gas companies “ought to be leading the charge.”

Chevron did not join a decarbonization charter unveiled at the United Nations meeting that would commit it to slashing methane emissions to near-zero and halt flaring of natural gas by the end of the decade. The California-based company also hasn’t ponied up funding or technical support for a new World Bank grant fund to help rivals in developing nations stem their own methane releases.
