I left the end of the article out because it’s been covered like a billion times just here on this forum.
And yes China will go back to polluting like a motherfucker when this is over.
And yes you and others are still missing the entire point.
It's really baloney to point at China in terms of "polluting like a motherfucker" - their per capita emissions are trivial compared to ours. If you are going to go whole FOX on us, why don't you just say "the entire rest of the world creates more emissions than the US"
Per capita emissions lol.

Breaking down global carbon emissions: Pick your poison…
Annual (2017): China 9.8 billion tons (27%); USA 5.3 billion tons (15%); EU 3.5 billion tons (9.8%)
Per Capita (2017): Saudi Arabia 19.3 tons per capita; Australia 16.9 tons per capita; USA 16.2 tons per capita; for comparison purposes, China 7 tons per capita
Historical: The USA has emitted more CO2 than any other country to date: at around 400 billion tons since 1751 (25% of historical emissions)
