BEIJING- China on Tuesday rejected a plan by US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to back out of a global climate change pact, saying a wise political leader should make policy in line with global trends, a rare comment on a foreign election. The world is moving towards balancing environmental protection and economic growth, China's top climate change negotiator told reporters, in response to a query on how China would work with a Trump administration on climate change. . . 'If they resist this trend, I don't think they'll win the support of their people, and their country's economic and social progress will also be affected,' Xie Zhenhua said.
