Loud fart sound erupts during John Kerry’s speech at climate panel

Mr Kerry, the Biden administration’s climate envoy, was discussing US policy on coal power plants at the Climate Change Conference in Dubai on Sunday when he may have unleashed a burst of wind energy.

As per the New York Post, the former secretary of state was speaking next to Becky Anderson, managing editor of CNN Abu Dhabi, and Fatih Birol, executive director of the International Energy Agency.

“There shouldn’t be any more coal-fired power plants permitted anywhere in the world,” Mr Kerry began before launching into an anti-coal diatribe.

“I find myself getting more and more militant because I do not understand how adults who are in a position of responsibility can be avoiding responsibility for taking away those things that are killing people on a daily basis …”

Before Mr Kerry could complete his thought, the crude sound of passing gas could be heard over the microphone. The crowd broke into applause, apparently oblivious to the crude theatrics.

CNN’s Anderson — sitting to Mr Kerry’s right and within striking distance of a potential bodily function — quickly jerked her head aside and inconspicuously placed her hand to her mouth, possibly in the event of any stench permeating the climate panel.

Mr Birol, the energy executive, simply nodded his head in rapt contemplation.

“And the reality is that the climate crisis and the health crisis are one and the same,” Mr Kerry continued, unabated.

Larry O’Connor of Townhall Media said Mr Kerry’s alleged flatulence was an embarrassment to the US.

“The biggest problem is, during this entire exchange, representing us, the United States of America, he ripped a fart out,” O’Connor said. “He let loose with flatulence on an international stage.”

The pundit said the evidence was overwhelming and Kerry must answer for his actions.

“He should lose his job immediately,” he said. “John Kerry farted.”
