    China has just now started to step away from being an underdeveloped nation, and most of the Co2 emissions under their name are outsourced manufacturing from first world countries. China having been a colonised and oppressed nation, you can’t expect them to advance economically without them either having to pollute, or with the nations that first achieved “first world” status contributing economically to help in a green transition. This is something that’s always being talked about in diplomatic spheres, the need of certain Western countries to contribute to the imperialised ones in order to be able to transition in a better way. The issue is that these countries are not interested in doing so, and still behave like in colonial times. In this way, it’s hard to expect another outcome and it changes the focus from the real guilty here.
