The United States and the United Arab Emirates said on Monday that they would cooperate on jointly tackling challenges related to climate change.
“We will work to strengthen the implementation of the Paris Agreement and promote the success of COP26 in Glasgow. Mindful of the importance and urgency of raising global climate ambition, we each intend to take steps to decarbonize our economies in line with our national circumstances and economic development plans, including reducing our emissions by 2030,” the two countries noted in a joint statement.
The State Department released the statement following the official visit of Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry to the UAE
