Allianz Climate Solutions / NewClimate Institute / Germanwatch

If climate action and renewables growth are constrained under the new US administration, the EU must step up its efforts and join forces with China and India, according to a joint report by Allianz Climate Solutions, NewClimate Institute and Germanwatch. Germany's G20 presidency means it has a special role to play in convincing other members to draw up their own climate plans, Germanwatch’s Jan Burck said in a press release. The report itself focuses on recent policy developments in China, India and the US.
