A debtor, even if it has the moral authority, cannot dictate to its debtee. Maybe China will show us the way to a greener future and lay down the rules for our ecological policies, They may be a dictatorship but they are not one of corporations.

Diamond is quite right; also Chinese cars are less polluting. this piece is the usual attempt of American media, including the fake Progressive media, to disguise the fact that the chief polluter in the world is the USA, who has fought world attempts to restrict pollution.

China is about to build the biggest wind farm in the world and they are also heavily involved in solar energy and solar technology. They may be a big part of the problem but they are also evolving into a big part of the solution. And knowing the Chinese they will soon be exporting both wind and solar technology all over the world because they understand that a country that stops manufacturing and producing ‘things’ will find itself in a downward spiral. It’s a pity the west forgot this and it’s a pity they listened to liars on both climate change and the economy.
