Was actually not aware that emissions have gone down. Much more used to the US not doing anything or actively screwing people over (such as the arrest of Donziger) but at least it’s going down.
Those increases by China are used by opponents of climate action to argue that it’s not worth doing anything,
Hate that too.
China has been doing thins to curb emissions and generally fix the environment like the Gobi tree wall. Course there’s plenty more that could be doing but I digress.
It is; things could be worse than they are. The problem is that both absolute and per-capita emissions are going up, to the point where China crossed over to be the largest emitter on a national-total basis, and we’re at the point where they need to be going down.
