Advancing New American Leadership on Climate Diplomacy
The Climate Principals are former US cabinet officials and chief climate negotiators who have represented Democratic and Republican administrations in global climate policy for nearly three decades – from the 1992 Rio Earth Summit to the 2015 Paris Agreement and beyond.
Drawing on their experience with climate policy and diplomacy, the Climate Principals recommend a four-part plan to the Biden Administration, encompassing public and private funding, forest-friendly trade, transparent and clean supply chains, and robust diplomacy. Adopting this plan would signal that the Administration is making Amazon protection and climate change a priority.
