In 10 years,
China’s CO2
emissions
ate expected
to match
the rest of
the world’s
CO2 emissions
combined.
China overtook
the United States
as the world’s
largest CO2
emitter in 2008.
( Liu et al., 2019 ).
By 2015,
China
accounted for
30% of global
global emissions
( Shan et al., 2018 )
compared to
the US at 15%.
China consumes
more than 50%
of the world’s coal.
China is
now building
hundreds of
coal plants --
planning to add
a new coal plant
every two weeks
for the next
12 years !
China's longest
coal transporting
railway carries
200 million tonnes
of coal from north
to east China
every year.
China will be
responsible for
50% of the globe’s
CO2 emissions
within 10 years
( Liu et al., 2019 ).
According to
proponents of CO2
mitigation policies,
the cost of the global
infrastructure changes
required to reduce
CO2 emissions
to acceptable levels,
is $89 trillion by 2030.
Why should the
rest of us spend
$89 trillion to
reduce CO2
emissions ?
The journal Nature claims
we’re already spending
about $600 billion annually
on CO2 mitigation.
So why should
the rest of us
spend
$600 billion
every year
to reduce CO2
emissions ?
“Total climate-related
financing was $510 billion
to $530 billion in 2017,”
which is
much higher
than the
$360 billion
spent in 2012.
“The UN’s Framework Convention
on Climate Change (UNFCCC),
put it at $681 billion in 2016”
(Yeo, 2019).
So why are we doing
all this spending ?
More important:
Why are the Chinese
not doing this spending ?
Do their scientists
believe the alleged
“catastrophic
anthropogenic
global warming”
is baloney ?
Chinese research
actually considers
the real possibility
of a cooling world:
China has decided
they won't handicap
their own economy
with CO2 emissions
reductions, like the
Europeans are doing
to themselves.
The Chinese do
“talk the talk,”
at every climate
conference that
they attend,
showing off
their new
windmills and
solar farms.
They also
encourage
overtaxed
EU companies,
with high EU
energy prices,
to move their
manufacturing
operations
to China !
“CO2 leakage”
is where CO2
abatement
in one area
leads to
exporting work
to other regions,
where CO2
abatement
is not required,
because of
a "developing
country" status.
In the 1970s,
China’s per capita
CO2 emissions
were 1/25th
that of the US.
Today,
more than half --
and on pace
to overtake the US
in about 12-15 years.
It seems that Beijing
has never bought
into the Coming
CO2 Driven
Climate Change
Crisis hysteria.
But they are
more than willing
to let the West
commit economic
suicide !
