A key politician is missing from a new clean energy partnership between the United States and China: President Donald Trump.
The agreement instead involves Chinese President Xi Jinping and California Gov. Jerry Brown, who has vowed to lead America’s fight against climate change following Trump’s decision to pull the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement.
Brown, along with a dozen U.S. governors and hundreds of mayors and companies, has pledged to slash his state’s greenhouse gas emissions and uphold America’s commitment to the landmark treaty, even in the absence of federal support.
