Does the USA have a central government with a central policy? Obama believed in climate change even if Trump doesn't, most of congress, even on the right, believe in some amount of climate change (e.g. McCain). I'm really at a loss to find that unified anti climate change sentiment in the states. It's more like a democracy where politicians and electorates are allowed to have different opinions.
By central government, I meant for the US the federal government, and in particular the present administration.
My question still stands.
When I google "china coal power", a confusing set of links appears. Some are certain that coal power plant construction in China has halted or will halt in future, others are not. I suspect reality doesn't match the marketing exactly.
Your post is misplaced but...
China is definitely building new coal plants, just not in every district. Beijing has a ban, for example, but not surrounding Hebei.
