US, China pledge cooperation on climate following California talks

SINGAPORE, Nov 15  — The United States and China will "operationalise" a bilateral working group on climate and work together on issues like methane, plastic pollution and the energy transition, they said in a joint statement on Wednesday following talks this month.

The two sides said they support a declaration by G20 leaders to triple global renewable energy capacity by 2030 and promised to work together on a global, legally binding agreement to tackle plastic pollution.

The countries' top climate envoys, John Kerry and Xie Zhenhua, met in Sunnylands, California on November  4 to 7.
