China to Trump: No, Climate Change is Not Chinese Hoax

HeadlineNov 17, 2016

Instead, Liu Zhenmin said, “If you look at the history of climate change negotiations, actually it was initiated by the IPCC with the support of the Republicans during the Reagan and senior Bush administration during the late 1980s.”
