Comment on China's Green Energy Surge Has Caused CO2 Emissions to Fall for the First Time

As far as I can see, it caused China’s CO2 emissions to fall. The headline reads misleadingly as if global emissions fell. Global emissions continue to rise.

I mean sure, but I’m gonna take small victories where I can. In the constant news cycle of depressing news. This is a small bit of hope for climate action.

  Honestly this is the best climate related news I’ve heard in like, 5 years.

    Exactly, I don’t know why people have to always turn stuff into a negative.

I don’t read it that way as it doesn’t specify at all. That’s the article’s headline. It’s just shared as it is

  I didn’t mean to criticize you. I recognize that it’s the original wording.

    No worries, friend. It’s a valid point. Publications do try to pull readers in with vague wording sometimes. If the rest of the world follows China’s model maybe things will improve on a more global scale.
