Americans care about climate change, but we aren't causing it. China has 3x the amount of emissions as USA, and India will soon be surpassing us.
Why should we voluntarily destroy our economy and let China be the strongest nation in the world?
Not only is China taking dramatic steps to transition to a green economy, the country’s leaders view this shift as an opportunity to overtake the United States as the world’s economic superpower.
China accounts for less than 18% of the global population but in 2023 installed 70% of the world’s added wind power capacity, 42% of all solar panels, 32% of all heat pumps, and accounted for 57% of all electric vehicle sales. China is also forecast to account for 44% of the world’s added nuclear power capacity by 2030.
China installed more solar panels in 2023 than the United States has in its entire history. It accounts for almost 60% of new renewable capacity expected to become operational globally over the next five years, and almost two-thirds of global wind and solar projects under construction today are in China. As a result, Chinese climate pollution appears to have now peaked and is poised to decline.
