John Kerry on the Climate Crisis - Scottish Global Dialogues | Ep 01

In this first episode of the Beyond Borders Scotland Podcast, we're honoured to welcome Secretary John Kerry, the US Presidential Envoy on Climate.

Secretary Kerry’s phenomenal address on the Climate Crisis launched a new annual lecture series entitled ‘Scottish Global Dialogues’, a joint initiative of Beyond Borders Scotland and the WS Society, which will bring a speaker of international standing to the Signet Library each year during the Edinburgh Festivals.

Introduced by Mark Muller Stuart KC, Founder of Beyond Borders Scotland and Humza Yousaf, the First Minister of Scotland, Kerry delivers a keynote speech on the Climate Crisis at the Signet Library, echoing the Scottish Enlightenment's spirit. This episode is a profound exploration of the challenges and solutions for the climate crisis, offering a unique perspective from one of the world's leading voices on climate action. Join us as we delve into this critical global dialogue, where understanding, commitment, and action converge.
