    Tipping point was decades ago, we’re in damage control. Also, the amount of cocksucking this guy does for China is amazing. China’s emissions increase every year and that’s going to continue I guarantee it.

      I’m very against China personally because of their awful government and I don’t want my purchases going towards their giant co2 pile but being fair

      China’s emissions may be falling - here’s what you should know

      https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4gdd6jdm42o

      and on top of this do we count the fact they absolutely dominate solar and battery sales helping reduce the wests emissions? For example Australia has the cheaper batteries rebate:

      https://aussie.zone/post/28121407

      Which has seen a whopping

      This is expected to:

      • help over 2 million Australians install a battery by 2030

      • deliver around 40 GWh of additional storage capacity.

      The Cheaper Home Batteries Program has been an unprecedented success. The program has brought down the cost of installing a solar connected battery. This has made it possible for more Australians to maximise cheap and clean solar energy, and participate in the energy transition.

      Since launch, the program has:

      • supported delivery over 160,000 battery installations across Australia

      • added over 3.6 GWh of capacity to the energy grid

      • purchased over 21,000,000 small-scale technology certificates.

      How much do you want to bet of those 160,000 batteries 95%+ are from China?

      How much of Europes emissions reductions are coming from Chinese made renewable solar panels and batteries?

        No, we don’t count other countries decrease in emissions against China’s totals. If China wanted to use those solar and batteries to decrease their emissions, they could have, but it was more economic to sell them while burning coal at home.

        China’s emissions may be dropping? Doubt it, they’re expanding number of cars on the road every year and in recent years they’ve been pushing to increase their population.

          You’ve seen the sheer mind blowing stats though yeah?

          Almost three-quarters of all solar and wind power projects being built globally are in China, says a new report that highlights the country’s rapid expansion of renewable energy sources.

          China is building 510 gigawatts of utility-scale solar and wind projects, according to data from the Global Energy Monitor, a non-governmental organisation based in San Francisco.

          That compares with about 689GW under construction globally, GEM said. A rough rule of thumb is that a gigawatt can potentially supply electricity for about 1mn homes.

          they’re expanding number of cars on the road every year

          EV’s and NEV’s?

          China produced some 17 million EVs in 2024 or around 70% of all EVs built globally (and that number is expected to grow this year

          Around 11 million didn’t leave the country

          https://insideevs.com/news/783051/chinese-ev-export-numbers-2025/

          They are nearly single handedly powering the renewables revolution

          in recent years they’ve been pushing to increase their population

          Population doesn’t correlate with co2 usage

            You’ve seen the sheer mind blowing stats though yeah?

            I’ve also seen their stats on covid and Uighurs

            EV’s and NEV’s?

            Powered by Superheated Coal Power Plants?

            They are nearly single handedly powering the renewables revolution

            Their intentions for these EV exports that they’re selling at a cost is to corner markets and push competitors out, afterwhich they will undoubtedly spy on the west or remotely disable in times of war. Perhaps even self destruct.

            Population doesn’t correlate with co2 usage

            I think you meant to put the misleading CO2 per capita image but you accidentally told the truth with the CO2 total image where China tops the chart by having roughly triple the runner up.
