As the global race for climate leadership intensifies, both the United States and China play crucial roles in shaping the future of climate action, green technologies, and energy innovation. Washington and Beijing face significant strategic challenges in navigating competition and cooperation on clean energy, carbon reduction technologies, and the transition to sustainable economies, all while confronting the urgent global threat of climate change.

On January 13, the John L. Thornton China Center will host a high-level discussion on the evolving dynamics of U.S.-China relations on climate change and green technology. Panelists will share key insights and policy recommendations from their recent research, addressing critical topics such as U.S.-China export bans on vital minerals and technologies, investments in clean energy and innovation, and decisions from policymakers in Washington and Beijing to secure global leadership in the emerging green economy.
