How dare they subsidize the green transition?!

[–] riseuppikmin@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago

China is subsidizing the transition away from fossil fuels which greatly accelerate climate change and if not taken seriously immediately will lead to the deaths of tens of not hundreds of millions in the next few decades. The speed at which this transition occurs is vital in saving human lives and preventing infrastructure losses previously unfathomable. Their actions towards green energy adoption both domestically and abroad are one of the few things that provide any sense of hope about a better renewable future.

On the other hand: BUT AT WHAT COST
