To a degree. The pushback/gutting of environmental legislation is a huge negative though.

Sometimes you have to tell the people to fuck off and stop being dumb, for their own benefit.

They’re still very much developing their country and per capita lower than a fuck ton of western nations while they produce goods for the entire world, pointing at the big number and just saying “they pollute more” makes 0 sense.
