SCIENCE - China and India: Toward a sustainable world
DOI: 10.1126/science.abd4723
In light of current political tensions at the China-India border (1), the two countries should consider their shared purpose and the mutual benefits that would result from cooperation. Both countries face environmental challenges at global, regional, and local levels, and both have the capabilities to be global leaders in providing environmental solutions. We urge the governments of China and India to facilitate science diplomacy, starting with the Himalaya region.
