I thought we already borrowed trillions from China. Wasn't the Chinese the source of all Trump's deficit money borrowed during his one term as POTUS?

For MANY years in the future, the USA will pay to the Chinese (along with the Arab Oil "kings") interest on loans already taken.

And the climate agreements already have given the Chinese much more time (as compared to the USA) to reduce their greenhouse emissions. So they have the time to address the root causes. And they apparently already have the money. The Chinese are good at saving money, as are the Japanese, now the #3 world economy (last time I looked).

How can the west compete?

We are so divided, tied up with bureaucracy and malevolent forces at work, constantly thinking up new ways of branding everything we hold dear as wrong and disgusting.

I have to agree with RAM on much of this, when you look at the divisiveness and polarization in USA over race, politics, and the spending of Federal dollars, not to mention school curricula and many more issues.

Dictatorships are nearly always more efficient; they do not have to go through the messy, tedious, and lengthy processes of debate, and compromise, and elections, too.

China's emissions now exceed all the developed world's combined

China now accounts for more greenhouse gas emissions than all of the world’s developed nations combined, according to new research from Rhodium Group.


also, from the same source:

China’s emissions of six heat-trapping gases, including carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, rose to 14.09 billion tons of CO2 equivalent in 2019, edging out the total of Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development members by about 30 million tons, according to the New York-based climate research group.

The massive scale of China’s emissions highlights the importance of President Xi Jinping’s drive to peak carbon emissions before 2030 and reach net-zero by 2060. China accounted for 27 per cent of global emissions. The U.S., the second biggest emitter, contributed 11 per cent while India for the first time surpassed the European Union with about 6.6 per cent of the global total.

Still, China also has the world’s largest population, so its per capita emissions remain far less than those of the U.S. And on a historical basis, OECD members are still the world’s biggest warming culprits, having pumped four times more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than China since 1750.
