What鈥檚 next for China?
China is bucking a global trend and its economy is growing again
China is bucking a global trend and its economy is growing again. We hear from Wuhan and Shanghai, where restrictions have been lifted and companies are back in business. But the scars left by Covid-19 are still evident. We鈥檒l also ask how ready China is for the challenges of 2021. The world鈥檚 second biggest economy is spending huge amounts on green technologies and clean power. Presenter Fergus Nicoll talks to Dr Sha Yu, Co-Director of the China Programme at the University of Maryland鈥檚 Centre for Global Sustainability, and Stefan Gs盲nger, Secretary-General of the World Wind Energy Association. Fergus is also joined by Yuan Yang, deputy Beijing bureau chief at the Financial Times and independent economist Andy Xie in Shanghai.
