The Polycrisis team’s taking a short break, we’ll be back next week. 

In the meantime we’re sharing an episode from NuVoices where they interview Kate Mackenzie. 

NuVoices host Solarina Ho asks Kate whether the topic of climate change has been weaponised amid the US-China trade war. Also how the global rush to electric vehicles served global needs, both strategically and environmentally. Kate shares her insights into the latest trend of climate collaboration, renewable energy development, and how we could save our planet at a time of geopolitical uncertainty.

NuVoices is an international editorial collective. It celebrates and supports the diverse creative work of women and other underrepresented communities working on the subject of China (broadly defined).

The Polycrisis is hosted by energy and climate finance expert Kate Mackenzie, and Tim Sahay from the Net Zero Industrial Policy Lab at Johns Hopkins University. They co-author The Polycrisis newsletter, which explores connections between energy, geopolitics, climate change, finance and industry.
