The empty cities in China are not available for people to live in. There are homeless people in China.
The title of this article is ridiculous because it’s not like China beat climate change. There are plenty of other countries doing a better job within their borders than either China or the United States.
Until recently, the U.S. and China were positioned to benefit from the clean-energy revolution. China already dominates manufacturing of solar panels, batteries, and wind turbines, and controls much of the rare earth minerals required to produce those clean technologies. Historically, the U.S. has led in research, innovation, and software, though China has overtaken us in many of these areas, such as electric vehicles and patents.
Now, Trump is ceding the field entirely, which amounts to nothing short of unilateral disarmament. His tax cuts have gutted U.S. clean‑energy incentives. He has withheld financial support for renewable energy and used red tape to kill off existing projects. Meanwhile, China’s investments in green solutions continue.
