It’s complicated. Those factories are produced because dirty energy is cheap and the world demands cheap shit. The externality of the carbon emissions is something that can be priced into the cost of consumer goods, but again, people want cheap shit and would riot if the cost of Chinese goods went up some non-trivial amount. The fact of the matter is that clean energy is more expensive, and while that gap has been closing, the inescapable consequence is that we need to either consume less stuff or pay more for it.

We could share energy technology to make them less reliant on coal…

Never happen when economies and politics are based on always looking for the upper hand and profits.
Both countries depend on jingonists for political control. Neither, however, are entirely run by them.
The general population doesn’t seem to want to work with distant outside nations. Just the replies to an article you see like this on social media see people unwilling to state what Bernie Sanders is saying. It’s true… like the pandemic, climate change is impact the whole word, but people want to say it is one local political party or another. The faith in humanity coming together over a common positive cause I hope has reached bottom and can improve.
Bernie i love ya man, but this is the same China now selling Weapons to Russia. China is only interested in what makes its ruling party $$$.
Yea well that’s out the window because of decades of unhealthy competition and racism.
