Beijing bolstering position as global renewables leader with solar capacity more than rest of world combined
Yeah, but does their government convert 1.5 trillion dollars a year in public monies and national debt into defense industry and health insurance industry profits, providing incredible value for shareholders?!
Checkmate, communists

Whether they’re actually building it or not shouldn’t change how the west reacts to it. Instead, we should treat it like we did the MIG-25: assume it’s real and invest in our own systems to maintain superiority.
Worst-case scenario, we get extra green tech innovation and save the world from global warming more than we intended. Oh darn.
The stuff China is doing is tangible and very noticeable. There are stuff one can’t hide very easily.

It’s totally okay and I understand your position.
In China they actually build stuff. In the West we just talk about it and fly in private jets to extravagant climate conferences.
To be fair, you can actually install your own photovoltaics. I heat with hardwood and currently make net half of electricity I consume.
Little things by individuals do add up. Absence of them of course does, too.
