How do New Zealanders assess China’s response to climate change? We recently had a unique opportunity to work with InstatData, a kiwi start-up which analyses social media posts to gauge New Zealanders’ opinions on particular issues. We put their technology to the test to focus on China and climate change, as an issue we suspected would reveal diverse public perceptions. And then we discussed the findings with New Zealander Emilly Fan, who is currently researching in this area in Beijing.
Are New Zealanders’ impressions about China and climate change justified? How do younger Chinese feel about the issues? And what more could New Zealand and China do together to tackle this critical global challenge?
