America has abdicated its role, and that role will be filled
All of us should lead this fight, chrissakes.
As far as I know China is not only the largest economy or about on par with the US, but has also made huge strides in renewables, so this makes sense actually, much as we are not used to hearing international bodies inviting China to lead. I would go as far as saying this is a case of China already leading the world - at least at home, not sure how clean or energy-efficient their offshore projects are.

There is much you don’t hear about China because it doesn’t fit the official narrative, and much you do hear which is distorted and/or unsubstantiated and/or simply untrue from western corporate media.
I’m sure there won’t be any financial impact from the largest global manufacturer converting their means of production to renewable energy sources.
Way to “stick it to China,” Trump.
Haven’t they already been? The US talks good but then doesn’t follow through. Didn’t China actually put up record numbers of wind and solar fields?
If china is our last hope then we are truly 100% fucked.
Why though?
Also China recently started producing freons again. I thought we got rid of that problem for good, but no…
Most of the consumption excesses people on Lemmy condemn the US for, are enabled and facilitated by China. The entire “disposable crap” culture is only possible because of China and its cheap manufacturing base, and lesser standards of health, safety, environmental protection, etc.
