China is set to double its capacity and produce 1,200 gigawatts of energy through wind and solar power by 2025, reaching its 2030 goal five years ahead of time, according to the report by Global Energy Monitor, a San Francisco-based NGO that tracks operating utility-scale wind and solar farms as well as future projects in the country.

Great, I hope they keep expanding in renewables instead of importing more fossil fuels from Russia

Finally, someone is taking climate change seriously. I don't know how I'm going to survive this summer, let alone the next one... and the next one... and the next one. :P

Hate the Chinese government in general, but there's nothing bad to say about this. Great job China, keep it up! I hope this leads to a tech race between major powers to try to outpace each other toward Greenification!
