Their fusion and fission work is very impressive,” the Microsoft Corp. co-founder said of China’s nuclear innovation efforts. The country is investing more in fusion “than the rest of the world put together, times two


And basically all forms of green energy
And high speed rail
And like the majority of metrics that one would use to measure investment in one’s populace
But we spend more on the military then the next like 5 countries put together, so that’s something, I guess. Imagine if we also poured that money into infrastructure instead of facilitating genocide
China has the highest emissions in the world!
Only right now though. And only in annual volume. And in large part because they make just about everything for just about every other country.
China has four times the population of the United States. Despite this and being the world’s factory, their CO2 emissions per capita are only 10.1 tons. Which sounds like a lot - and it is - but the United States emissions are 17.6 tons per capita.
But who cares about all that mumbo jumbo. Don’t go looking at how America got here, to this pedestal so high above the rest. There’s nothing to see in the past, just some work ethic and a good pair bootstraps. Don’t worry about it.
China bad, America good!
