“The Chinese Communist Party, once famous for pillaging from the natural world, has set to protecting parts of it. But the country’s “eco-authoritarian” approach deserves scrutiny”
“Yes, China is saving the environment while we in the West continue to destroy it, but at what cost?!”
“Once famous for pillaging from the natural world”??? What level of projection is this? Coming from the mouthpiece of the British empire that deforested every habitable continent, directly caused the extinction of countless species, and strip mined all of its colonies.
That’s copium because China has rare earths the west wants and can’t get because of totally self inflicted policy.
