To date, China\u2019s size has meant that its per capita emissions have remained considerably lower than those in the developed world. \u2026 While China exceeded all developed countries combined in terms of annual emissions and came very close to matching per capita emissions in 2019, China\u2019s history as a major emitter is relatively short compared to developed countries, many of which had more than a century head start.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>A separate analysis from the firm estimated that China\u2019s emissions grew in 2020 despite the coronavirus pandemic that originated in Wuhan and subsequently wreaked havoc across the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBased on preliminary economic and energy data, we estimate that total GHG emissions in China increased 1.7% in 2020, reaching 14,400 million metric tons (MMt) of CO<sub>2<\/sub>e,\u201d the report <a href=\"https:\/\/rhg.com\/research\/preliminary-2020-greenhouse-gas-emissions-estimates-for-china\/\">said<\/a>. \u201cTo put that figure in context, we estimate that is the equivalent of the total annual emissions of nearly 180 of the world\u2019s lowest-emitting countries combined.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report was so damning that even far-left climate activist Greta Thunberg slammed China on Twitter, essentially saying that China will ruin the world unless they cut emissions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, China is still categorized as a developing nation by WTO, they manufacture a lot of our products and so on. But that\u2019s of course no excuse for ruining future and present living conditions. We can\u2019t solve the climate crisis unless China drastically changes course,\u201d Thunberg tweeted. \u201cAs CO2 emissions stay in the atmosphere up to 1,000 years we of course need to look at historic emissions and in context to population and emissions per capita. And developed nation [sic] must lead so others can raise their living standards.
