AFTER Donald Trump took office, a new cold war started heating up between China and the US. Regrettably, President Biden doesn’t seem predisposed to cooling tensions anytime soon.

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), human activity has warmed the earth by 1.1°C since 1850-1900.
