OMG googling for China green energy news is nearly impossible...
Anyway I read something recently that said that if China's green advancements were ignored, the world would have gone backward in percentage of green energy production.
China is a big country, so anything it does make a huge difference. The fact of the matter is that when they build more green energy than many european nations entire energy output, we know for sure that whatever they do sets the stage for the world. Taking them out of the equation and seeing how bad the rest of the world is doing highlights how China is dragging the rest of the world kicking and screaming into the energy future.
