Mr Sharma arrived in the city of Tianjin this Sunday to discuss the climate crisis with Xie Zhenhua, China’s special climate envoy.
According to a report in The Times, the meeting was set to discuss how the UK and China can “work together” to make the COP26 summit a success.
The UK envoy then met with vice-premier, Han Zheng for what has been described as a “constructive discussion”.
However, China has refused to cooperate, instead opting to stick to its original target of carbon neutrality by 2060.
An editorial published in the party-run Global Times, has accused Washington of exerting undue pressure on the Chinese regime and international community at large.
China has set out its roadmap towards net-zero emissions and the country “will stick to its own pace”.
