Is it worth mentioning? Why?
Just wanted to add some perspective. There's a narrative lately that China is a champion of the green movement, which is absurd
It's no less absurd than the opposite narrative, that China is some kind of climate villain.
The reality is China is on the right track, but not there yet. I'm somewhat optimistic.
Pretty reasonable narrative tbh. China's CO2 emmissions plateleued last month and have even started to fall, and they're targeting zero emissions by 2060. They've also started spearheading cleaner energy this month with the first 4th gen nuclear reactor.
And of course the news in this post.
