So why not post per capita offshore wind production? How does that compare?
Anyway that’s not even true. China is near the middle of the pack for developed countries, and emits far more per capita than most nations. And getting worse every year as they build more coal plants than the rest of the world combined. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/carbon-footprint-by-country#
I only posted this because you constantly post distorted positive reports of China’s environmental record while ignoring the negatives, which gives a misleading picture. China is far from the worst country environmentally but it’s also far from the best.
China is so far ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to renewables and nuclear that it’s not even funny. China also has a concrete plan to become carbon neutral that it’s implementing at scale while the west keeps doing greenwashing and paying lip service to transitioning off fossils. The coal use you mention has been found to be in line with China’s 1.5c commitment.
Here’s the stunning progress China has made just this year alone in implementing solar.
In addition to renewables, CHina is making a massive investment in nuclear and it’s building 150 nuclear power plants.
It’s kind of ironic that you posted a comment that’s distorting the progress China has made in moving off fossils is doing while accusing me of doing the same. You’re claiming that China is far from the best, and that’s just demonstrably a false statement. No other country is doing anything on the scale of China right now. Here’s a CSIS report showing that China is in fact the leader in global renewable energy. Meanwhile, studies show that it’s US/EU who are overwhelmingly responsible for emissions.
I really have no idea why you felt the need to write a post full of distortions and misinformation.

In fact, fossil fuels less than half of power capacity.
China has more than 400,000 electric buses, about 99% of the world’s total.
Furthermore, China has done massive reforestation that has no equivalent anywhere else that I’m aware of
