US special presidential envoy for climate John Kerry has praised Germany's climate policy, expressing his confidence that Berlin would be able to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.
"We can hit 1.5 [degrees warming]," said Kerry, adding that: "We are not on track to do it now, and it is not absolutely clear that we will get on track. Globally, we are heading to 2.5, somewhere in the high twos right now. And we really must turn that around."
