    They’ve done a lot about that, like becoming the global leader in pretty much every renewable sector as well as nuclear. Also, worth mentioning that smooth brained liberals have all their stuff produced in China. It’s absolute idiocy to bleat about pollution without considering where consumption is happening. Per capita energy usage in China is far lower than in the west.

        China produces less pollution then most western countries while also doing all their manufacturing, you racist cretin.

        The demand comes from people consuming the goods. I’m sorry you lack intellectual capacity to wrap your head around this concept.

            It’s wild how people use anticapitalist arguments to attack opponents of neoliberalism

            That’s a nice straw man there buddy. I never said anything of the sort. It’s the capitalist system in the west that’s responsible for creating western lifestyle and the consumption that goes along with it. Nowhere did I say that I expected this system to work either. Keep trying there.
