And looking at per capita, consumtion based, the US is ten times as bad as China. US: 20 tons per person. China: 2 tons. I think the world average is 4t.
China still needs to cut down because 2 tons is a lot more than what is OK but holy shit saying
is the wrongest thing I've ever heard. There are very few countries on this planet who arr doing worse than the US:

The wrongest thing you’ve heard based on stats that you think are accurate. China always under reports their data and a large majority of fuel consumers in China are smaller private entities that don’t report on it at all. So get all indignant all you want about numbers that aren’t accurate

The wrong thing was that "It doesn't matter what the US does" when the US is exceptionally culpable on the demand side, the drill side, and the policy side.
