California Gov. Gavin Newsom's trip to China, with the stated goal of working together to fight climate change, resulted in a surprise meeting with leader Xi Jinping and was filled with warm words and friendliness not seen in years in the China-U.S. relationship.
The trip was seen as one of the steps in paving the way for U.S. President Joe Biden and Xi to meet in San Francisco in November during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, but it also highlighted the existing relationship that China has with California, showing that even when tensions are high between the two countries, collaboration is still possible on some levels.
The information shared is often not high-level, but is about the thousands of smaller decisions, 'such as how do you finance electric buses, who pays for it, how do you set up the charging infrastructure?'California could learn more about offshore wind technologies from China, which is a global leader in using the tech, Wang said.
