Eager to help sell the Biden administration’s radical climate change agenda, on Friday, CBS This Morning aired a fawning interview with former Secretary of State turned climate envoy John Kerry that invited him to warn of the supposed coming environmental apocalypse and urged “more aggressive” government regulation of fossil fuel emissions.

“Today the U.S. officially rejoins the Paris Climate Accord. America is currently the second largest emitter, behind China, of greenhouse gases that are warming the planet,” co-host Tony Dokoupil heralded as he introduced the segment. The morning show anchor then lamented: “In 2017, former President Trump announced he was pulling out of the landmark deal signed by more than 190 nations, which was designed to help cut global carbon emissions.”

Correspondent Ben Tracy began by blaming recent “wild winter weather” on climate change and fretted that “someday we may just call this normal.” Turning to Kerry, he worried: “Some people get hung up on the term ‘global warming’ and say, ‘Well, I thought everything’s supposed to get warmer.’” Kerry assured him: “It is directly related to the warming, even though your instinct is to say, wait a minute, this is the new ice age, but it’s not. It is coming from the global warming, and it threatens all the normal weather patterns.”
