Surprise: Climate Envoy John Kerry Earned Millions On Fossil Fuels

I guess he talked to Al Gore, who sold his television network to al Jazeera, which is funded by fossil fuels

REVEALED: John Kerry sold his shares in OIL firms on becoming Biden’s climate czar to ‘avoid conflict of interest’ – and after warning we only have nine YEARS to save the world from climate change

John Kerry sold off hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shares in oil and gas firms after he was made Joe Biden’s Special Presidential Envoy for Climate – and weeks after warning that mankind has just nine years to save the planet.

Kerry revealed in official disclosures that he has received millions of dollars from salary, consulting fees and from liquidating stock that he held since President Biden took office.

Documents that cover most of 2020 which run up to January 2021 reveal how Kerry, 77, also held hundreds of thousands of dollars of investments in energy-related companies that could well be affected by policies that he will help develop as Joe Biden’s new climate envoy.

But he was warned by the State Department’s ethics office that the investments were a ‘significant risk of a conflict of interest’ – and agreed to sell them.

Kerry held between $204,000 and $960,000 stock in around three dozen firms connected to the energy sector, including electric, oil and gas, and nuclear energy.

He has also previously held high-ranking positions within firms and entities that could now by affected by his climate policies. The details were all contained in documents obtained by Axios.

See, it’s OK for Kerry to make oodles off of fossil fuels, but, you have to be forced to give them up.
