It was here where a Navy lieutenant commander by the name of John McCain was shot down in his Skyhawk.

I went to pay my respects. And to remember my friend.

Even though John is not with us, he left us pretty clear instructions: “Believe always in the promise and greatness of America because nothing is inevitable here."

A wonderful closing of the #AfricaClimateSummit with the commemoration of the International Day of Clean Air for Blue Skies together with @USAIDKenya @WorldResources @MathaiWanjira @CCACoalition and other partners. We have installed air Quality Monitors with a live feed on our website and for the first time allocated resources towards Air Quality interventions.

That’s a wrap on the @AfClimateSummit. The #NairobiDeclaration makes clear that countries and people across the African Continent must be at the heart of climate solutions. 🧵:

Young people – like the team behind @twendegreen or @YALINetwork – are the decision makers of tomorrow and need a seat at the table today. Pleased to the Nairobi Youth Declaration developed in advance of #ACS23. Some of the ways I saw youth leading while in Nairobi: 1/4

Happy #WorldCleanAirDay. I had the pleasure of getting a sneak peek at the new @CleanAirCAC mural outside the office of Gov. @SakajaJohnson. Clean air means healthier people, and less planet-warming pollutants in the air.

Honored to co-chair this roundtable. We need decarbonization first and foremost but carbon markets can play a role in reducing emissions and preserving landscapes. Projects must outline how they will advance equity, be transparent about finance flows, and accountable for results

Appreciated this opportunity for @ClimateEnvoy and I to hear and learn from civil society in Kenya. Indigenous Peoples and local communities have been leading on climate action for decades, and we @USAID are committed to centering them in our efforts to address the climate crisis
