US climate envoy John Kerry will soon step down from his role to work on President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign, officials have told US media.
The former senator and secretary of state, who held the climate role for three years, will reportedly be involved in promoting Mr Biden’s work on combatting global warming.
The 80-year-old informed his staff of the move on Saturday.
Americans will head to the polls in November to elect their next president.
Mr Kerry’s departure follows the COP28 climate summit in Dubai, where he helped negotiate an agreement for countries to move away from using fossil fuels.
During his tenure, he also worked effectively with China despite strained diplomatic ties.
Alongside Beijing’s top climate official Xie Zhenhua, he pushed for their two countries – the largest emitters of greenhouse gases – to work towards tripling renewable energy globally by 2030.
As secretary of state under President Barack Obama, Mr Kerry was key to brokering the crucial 2015 Paris climate agreement.
That deal saw nearly the whole world for the first time support a common strategy to cut the greenhouse gas emissions which cause global warming.
Mr Biden has pledged to cut US emissions in half by 2030, compared to 2005 levels. Two years ago, he passed $369bn (£290bn; €337bn) worth of green subsidies through Congress in a landmark bill.
While carbon pollution from greenhouse gases in the US went down by almost 2% last year – this was not fast enough to meet the 2030 target, according to an independent research firm.
Mr Kerry is still expected to attend the Munich Security Conference next month and attend the World Economic Forum in Davos next week.
It is still possible that these airstrikes will have a chilling effect on the Houthis. They will certainly degrade their capacity to attack ships in the short term.
But the longer these airstrikes persist, the greater the risk that the US and UK get sucked into another conflict in Yemen.
It has taken the Saudis more than eight years to extricate themselves from there after it intervened in the country’s civil war – and the Houthis are now more entrenched than ever.
About 15% of global seaborne trade passes through the Red Sea, the US says. This includes 8% of global grain, 12% of seaborne oil and 8% of the world’s liquified natural gas.
