1:00:33Now PlayingSecuring essential resources is a critical national security priority. This imperative fuels geostrategic competition between the United States and the People’s Republic of China (PRC). However, over many years, the PRC has executed a plan to reverse roles by infiltrating and dominating the “green movement” embraced by many on the political left.
To dissect this challenge, The Heritage Foundation’s Davis Institute of National Security and Foreign Policy is launching the “Chinese Handcuffs” project. These symbolic handcuffs represent the U.S. environmental agenda, which dates back to the 1970s but has accelerated significantly under the Biden administration. Unfortunately, this acceleration has come at the cost of natural U.S. energy advantages and energy consumers. In the coming months, Heritage’s Chinese Handcuffs project will delve into two interconnected themes: the CCP’s calculated strategy to control “green energy” sources and the consequences of the American left’s eagerness to collaborate with China in the fight against climate change.
Dr. Victoria Coates, Jack Spencer, and Erin Walsh from The Heritage Foundation, along with Landon Derentz from The Atlantic Council, will explore these project elements and China’s perilous energy developments.
