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.

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?

America has abdicated its role, and that role will be filled

All of us should lead this fight, chrissakes.

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.

If china is our last hope then we are truly 100% fucked.
