China is at present at the peak of their emissions, and will be reducing them. We passed our peak in 2010, but we are still #2 behind China as the second largest emitter of GHG's. In the meantime, China has installed more renewables than the rest of the world put together. In fact, were China to keep up this pace of renewable installation, it will surpass the US in total energy production. If Xi will just die, and be replaced by someone more interested in the welfare of the average Chinese than in empire, China could easily replace the US as the biggest power in the world, considering the incompetence and corruption of the present US leadership.
