Kerry on Obama: ‘His Commitment to the Environment Is Unsurpassed’

"It’s my great privilege to introduce to all of you my boss, for whom I have the greatest respect for many reasons, but above all his commitment to the environment is unsurpassed. And he is – through his Climate Action Plan, he is changing the way the United States powers our economy. And over the course of his presidency he’s taken very ambitious steps to cut pollution from the largest sources, from cars and trucks and buildings and power plants. And I think as many of you know, recently he just set aside – as our British friend mentioned – the creation of the world’s largest marine preserve, an area twice the size of the state of Texas. And this morning he officially designated – I’m sure he’ll talk about it – another marine national monument in the Atlantic."
