Asked by Tsinghua University’s Qi to elaborate on the environmental cooperation agreed upon by China and the US on Saturday, Clinton said the two countries would enter a “strategic and economic dialogue” focusing on clean energy and climate change.

“We wish to create a series of actions and partnerships between our countries … we hope that there would be many opportunities …  for partnerships between American companies and Chinese companies to produce cleaner energy,” she said.

Clinton also cited the latest steps taken under US President Barack Obama’s administration that would help this joint effort to combat climate change.

“I think a great deal is possible. Very much of it is technically possible. Our challenge now is to make it politically and personally possible. And that is what President Obama is committed to doing,” Clinton said.

“With our stimulus money, which was a very significant downpayment on modernizing our electric grid, incentivizing changes in building construction and design, retrofitting federal buildings … the science and technology is possible for us to be much more energy efficient …  we just to convince enough of our fellow citizens to agree with us” she said.

“But it’s also clear that it’s not only the developed countries, it is the economies like China and India that have to become full partners. How you do it, given your challenges, is something we want to work on.”

It was a challenge that included the growing voice of the Internet as Clinton also helped pen out a message to the 300-million strong Chinese online community at the end of the chat: “Let’s work together for a clean energy future.”
