A day before the first world leaders' meeting on climate change in five years, Kerry said he would take it upon himself to make sure the international community steps up to deal with the threat.
"This is an enormous challenge, and this is why the United States is prepared to take the lead in order to bring other nations to the table," Kerry said in remarks at the start of a week of climate-themed events in New York.
"As secretary of state, I promise you I am personally committed to making sure this is front and center of all our diplomatic efforts."
The commitment offered a much-needed boost to the UN summit, being held on Tuesday.
