Clean energy? Energy period is what China pushes, they've been HALF of the world's coal consumption for the last 15 years or so. For every solar farm, a coal plant.

And they seem to be actively pushing to phase out coal tby spending a lot of money in renewable research, but hey, keep fuming.

Could that have anything to do with china being the world manufacturing hub? Decades of offloading industrial capacity to a single country and then blaming them for the emissions that causes?

?? I should applaud China for building brand new coal plants because China hollowed out industry and destroyed worker's power elsewhere in the world?

Oh yeah, big bad China stole your industry lmao, it wasn't your own leaders choosing the cheapest option that allows them to extract hyper profits. And to say China destroyed worker power is laughable, the goal of the entire West has been to destroy labor unions and bargaining power.
