What an embarrassing headline.
China is not committed to reducing its carbon footprint until 2030 under the Paris Climate Accord, they are the worst environmental polluters in the world and the media buys into this.
This was a key reason why President Trump withdrew from the Paris Accord, the last administration appeased the world’s biggest polluters at the expense of the American economy.
We continue to see China use dirtier energy sources, emit more criteria air pollutants that impact California’s citizens, and fill the ocean with trash.
The U.S. has reduced its carbon footprint 12% since 2005 and under the @realdonaldtrump Administration criteria air pollutants have dropped 7% - you won’t read that in the New York Times.
