One thing he's wrong about, although most people believe it, is that China is a "dirtier" country than the US.

Idk if I saw this linked in one of your articles, but:

"China is the world's larger supplier and consumer of renewable energy, and is the first major electrostate. Electricity now accounts for close to a third of final energy consumption. Electricity's share of total consumption in China has been growing at roughly 10 percentage points per decade."
