Total number of coal power plants in the USA: 186
Total number of coal power plants in China: 1,198



I don't blame China tbh. They are doing what every country should which is make their country as competitive as possible and enacting policy which sees a growing middle class. The evil is the people in the West that facilitate China and other countries to do this, the people in the West that profit off China having lower wages and non-existent environmental regulations. China is still under 'developing nation' status with the WTO/UN, which means they don't have to watch their pollution contribution as much as Western countries and get dinged economically in various ways, while having the highest legit GDP and causing the most pollution of any country on Earth.

Incredible how China can add coal-fired power stations at an unprecedented rate of knots (up to 2 a week IIRC) and yet maintain or reduce its net carbon output.

That's some newfangled high-tech shit right there.

Because it is more than offset by the reductions in transportation emissions.

Of course I'm aware of the claimed offsets brother; it's obviously the only way they could make their figures "work".

I'm just not buying it is all.

Ok brother. Have a great day.

You too thanks brother.

Remember how you said you didn't trust the US intelligence services when they said that they knew exactly who was on the smuggling speedboats and what they were carrying?

Yet you trust the CCP in this case? I simply don't.
