U.S. Naval War College, LOO Coordinator

This event is for U.S. Naval War College students, faculty and staff.

China and Climate Change

This talk is designed to provide an overview of China’s climate policy, the factors and strategies that underpin it, and what the implications are for U.S. national interests. The talk will focus on implications for U.S. economic competitiveness, energy security, human rights policy, and geopolitics more generally. It will also suggest policies and strategies that can seek to reduce trade-offs and contradictions between climate policy objectives and other U.S. foreign policy goals such as holding Beijing accountable for human rights abuses.

This talk is organized by the Climate and Human Security Studies Group.
