China prioritizes quantity over quality and is on a mission to create reliance on its resources with the environment as its victim. For example, due to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (a $1 trillion transportation and energy infrastructure construction project spanning the globe), 1,600 coal plants are scheduled to be built by Chinese firms in more than 62 countries. These coal projects are planned for populations much larger than their respective current populations, and will have a lifespan of 40 years on average, creating a long-term dependence on Chinese coal supplies around the world. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/...ct-chinas-rapidly-increasing-carbon-emissions

The United States saw the largest decline in energy-related CO2 emissions in 2019 on a country basis – a fall of 140 Mt, or 2.9%, to 4.8 Gt. US emissions are now down almost 1 Gt from their peak in the year 2000, the largest absolute decline by any country over that period link: https://www.iea.org/articles/global-co2-emissions-in-2019
