Libs will ignore this and point to all the coal China is also building, ignoring that most of that coal is just backup and supplement while they continue to ramp up and improve the stability of their renewables.
It’s not just backup, it’s for developing areas that haven’t got the right material conditions to transition to green energy. Liberals don’t realize China is still a developing nation (or rather think the Chinese are inferior to them) so they assume they’re building coal because they’re malicious, and not like, developing.

they also have extremely high energy demands due to all the manufacturing that occurs in China, which then gets exported as goods to the West
Tons of the pollution and energy consumption in China is actually the West’s consumption, just offset geographically
And even including the manufacturing, per capita the Chinese pollute less than Americans lol
