WASHINGTON, DC - March 17, 2025 – Today, Gina McCarthy, Managing Co-Chair of America Is All In, former White House National Climate Advisor, and 13th U.S. EPA Administrator issued the following statement in response to the COP30 President-Designate André Aranha Corrêa do Lago’s letter outlining the priorities and commitments of this year’s convening:

“President-Designate André Aranha Corrêa do Lago has a vision for COP30 that I am confident will help us meet this critical moment. I strongly support his commitment to uphold multilateralism. I echo his call for world leaders to continue submitting national climate action plans that both reflect the goals of the communities they serve and meet the ambition of the Paris Agreement, which will turn 10 this year.

I am thrilled to see a strong emphasis on the importance of subnational engagement in meeting global climate goals. U.S. cities, states, businesses, and institutions are absolutely critical to strengthening economies, slashing pollution, and protecting the environment.

In the lead-up to COP30, America Is All In will be laser-focused on increasing clean energy, resilience, and innovation from the ground up. Through climate action, we’re creating good-paying jobs, more economic opportunities for our communities, and improving our health and energy security. We are fully committed to  working with our international partners to build a better, more resilient, and prosperous future.”
