Hello,
Welcome to the Beijing to Britain podcast!
In today’s episode, Sam and Steve speak to Belinda Schäpe. Belinda is an independent expert and policy advisor on Chinese climate policy and diplomacy, and helped to add proper policy detail to the vague claims that the UK and China need to engage on climate. What does engagement look like? Where can we work together? Where should we compete?
