An open letter from Christopher J. Loeak, President of the Republic of the Marshall Islands
For those of us weathering the devastating consequences of climate change, President Obama’s recent pledge to revive American leadership on the issue could not be more welcome. The President said that the U.S. has a «moral obligation» to lead the fight against the carbon pollution that has triggered the «global threat of our time.» We could not agree more. It’s time to turn the President’s words into action. This is why I have written to you, Mr Secretary, to invite you to attend the Pacific Islands Forum in September.
