Such a framework would protect the people most affected by environmental degradation and hold corporations accountable for transboundary climate harm.
Chinese and American firms are seeking to export their autonomous driving technologies to Southeast Asia. The signal lesson is that their data-driven models require sensitivity and adaptation to the region’s diverse markets.
