    China has an actual concrete plan for transition off fossil fuels. Initial stages still require coal to produce power to build out the infrastructure. A study in the second link found that China's use of coal is perfectly in line with the plan in the first link.

    So, kinda doesn't negate that, does it?

      This I didn't know, thanks for the info.

      It's good that they have a plan, just hope they can speed it up. If China can transition off coal faster, it'd be a boon for the world.
