China may have added a lot of solar panels, but solar and wind only form a tiny portion of the energy mix. The vast majority is coal. Yes, the US should be doing more to push renewables, but China isn't in a much better position presently.
The US is bragging about how much oil it's drilling, while China is installing more solar than anyone else, ever. Cope harder.
I'm using China as a demonstration, that moving over to a renewable first or renewable only energy mix isn't just a wave your magic wand thing. Solar only makes up a few percentage points of China's energy mix. Same with wind.
No shit, which is why they're rapidly expanding their renewable energy infrastructure. How much of their energy do you think is going to come from solar 10 years from now? 20? Meanwhile half of US politicians refuse to even acknowledge the existence of climate change.
