WHAT ABOUT OTHER COUNTRIES? CHINA’S COAL-FIRED POWER PLANTS PRODUCE MORE CO2 THAN ANYONE ELSE.

China will take a lot longer than we will to become climate-neutral because their energy needs are so much greater. But at the same time, the Chinese are far ahead of us when it comes to electromobility and photovoltaics. China will soon be reaching its maximum consumption of coal because most of it will already have been exhausted. This milestone will cause a huge reduction in the Chinese coal consumption. And oilproducing countries such as Saudi Arabia are also investing heavily now in renewable energy sources. When it comes to natural resources, the Saudis have a lot more than just petroleum—namely, sunshine.
