Clean Energy - China is number one

 The air over China is already much cleaner than five years ago. Then China was said to the most polluted country in the world, apparent in its air quality. And this provided the West with all the ammunition to demonise China. China took up the challenge to clean up its pollution image, first by refusing the import and recycling of waste from foreign countries, took steps to minimise sandstorms by reversing desertification and turning deserts into fertile ground for vegetation, support the rise of factories involved in the manufacture of clean energy vehicles or EVs and equipment like wind turbines and solar panels.

China is phasing out ICE vehicles, building more dams harnessing stored energy in water to generate electricity. China is installing wind turbines to harness wind energy to provide electricity for homes and factories. China is turning to solar energy too and all these are slowly taking over from fossil fuel, resources that China does not have much in reserve.

How deep is China's effort in using renewables? Some places in China are already running 'Robocab' or driverless taxis that can take passengers to where they want to go. Some cities in China are practically running on clean energy - homes, offices and factories and all modes of travelling are dependent on electric buses, cars, motorcycles and not to leave out trains.

Which country in the world goes to such an extent to really embrace the fight against climate change on such a scale? Some countries pretend to care so much for climate change but does not walk the talk and only offering lip service. They think it is the responsibility of others, just like it is the responsibility of other countries to produce products for them to freeload in exchange for their toilet papers. They want to protect their fossil fuel extraction and domination and hang on to their ICE vehicle manufacturing facilities which they have set up ages ago. They even tried to demonise EVs, wind turbines and solar panels as evil, all because they have lost the edge in manufacturing them.
