Its domestic response has prioritized measures to adapt to climate change rather than reduce emissions, but what other steps is it taking? Joanna Lewis (Georgetown University) joins to discuss China’s green innovation, how to foster cooperation on climate , and the impact of decoupling policies on China’s efforts.
