In den frühen neunziger Jahren waren die Pro -Kopf -Emissionen in Großbritannien sechsfache derjenigen in China. Und bevor jemand fragt: Ja, dies sind konsumbasierte Zahlen.
Interesting. UK putting out less overall (due to change in powerplant fuel etc) with small population increase while China remains at similar output levels while population declines?

A couple of key pulls from the article:
This accounts for the fact that the UK imports a bunch of stuff from China, so Chinese emissions caused by manufacturing UK goods are attributed to the UK, not China.
This also doesn’t include shipping or aviation, which the article says would likely be higher for Brits.
I was hoping for numbers arriving energy produced per capita as well – my understanding is that China’s energy mix is more polluting than ours, but they don’t use as much energy per person as we do, but that information is a few years old.

So, at the moment China is polluing the environment over 20 times more than GB.

China continues to boom, and puts their economy and people above any other consideration.

Well, that’s disturbing. Given the huge difference in populations (68m vs 1411m), that means China is emitting 20x more than UK

This also assumes that China even tracks this stuff and reports it accurately. Commies aren’t exactly known for their honesty
