In recent years, he has expressed skepticism about whether climate change is real, sometimes calling it a hoax. And in multiple instances, he and his administration have avoided using the term "climate change" altogether.
"My suggestion here to Governor Baker is this is a really grand opportunity" said Lesser, who worked for President Barack Obama's White House.
Almost 200 countries agreed to curb greenhouse gas emissions in the Paris agreement in 2015.
Kerry called Trump's Environmental Protection Agency head, Scott Pruitt, an "extremist" who doubts climate science.
