C3 Solutions explains the importance of China in addressing global climate change in China 101.
- China is the world’s largest polluter and a significant human rights violator.
- Without cooperation from China, it will be extraordinarily difficult to mitigate global greenhouse gas emissions.
- Through policies that are rooted in economic freedom, regulatory reform, and open markets, the international community can reduce emissions and grow their economies.
“There is no realistic way the world can tackle climate change if China doesn’t reduce its emissions. Given China’s growing economic and geopolitical influence, it is imperative that the United States and the global community start holding the country accountable for its actions.”
