China's journey towards an ecological civilization
Description
From an underachiever in environmental protection to a global leader in climate action, China's journey towards eco-friendliness over the past 75 years has been winding but steady and adamant. What triggered the transformation? What has enabled the country to emerge from smog, polluted water, and degraded land in its cities and some rural areas in just a few decades? And what goals should China prioritize to ensure sustainable development in the future?
Host Tu Yun is joined by Dr. Erik Solheim, former chief of the UN Environment Program and now president of the Green Belt and Road Institute, and Dr. Dechen Tsering, Regional Director of the UN Environment in Asia and the Pacific for China's journey towards building an ecological civilization in this episode of our special series commemorating 75 years of the People's Republic of China.
