How “energy security” is the brand new “climate change” | DW News
At this year’s G7 summit, world leaders notably avoided putting one thing on the agenda: climate change. Has the world stopped caring about climate action — or is something else happening? DW speaks with David Victor, professor at the University of California San Diego. Beyond US President Donald Trump’s personal disinterest in climate action, Victor discusses how governments are reframing climate policy around energy security and economic competitiveness so that climate action is not slowing down — it’s simply changing shape.
