DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) — John Kerry, America’s top official on climate change, says that the U.S. and China are making progress on putting together a group of experts from both countries to work toward quickly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Kerry made the comments while attending the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. It comes as government and corporate leaders are debating whether oil and gas companies can or should be part of the future transition to renewable energies such as wind and solar. The question is both practical and urgent, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has forced many countries that depended on Russian oil and gas to make swift changes to energy supplies.
