The Department of Energy and Climate Change leads the UK’s effort to tackle climate change. Securing a global and binding climate deal, in December this year, that keeps alive prospects for limiting global warming to within 2C is also a top foreign policy priority for the FCO. Together we raise climate change with a wide range of countries at ministerial level and through the Special Representative for Climate Change. Sir David King, the Foreign Secretary's Special Representative for Climate Change and my Rt Honourable friend the Member for Kingston and Surbiton continue to raise climate change with Chinese counterparts, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Minister responsible for climate change. Sir David King most recently visited China in January 2015.
