China and the Geopolitics of Climate Change

China and the Geopolitics of Climate Change

International climate policy is now shaped as much by geopolitics as by energy, economics or ecology, in large part because of China. Diplomatic cooperation between China and the U.S. is often seen as essential for climate action, but its temporary suspension following Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan showed that climate change is directly affected by U.S.-China competition. Drawing on a recent book, "China’s Next Act," Scott Moore's talk will probe the implications of growing geopolitical tension and rivalry for climate action – including whether competition might help spur increased investment in clean technology and climate adaptation.
