China and soon India are the two countries that make me feel hopeless about controlling CO2. I get that's not "fair", but the planet doesn't care about fairness.
As a compensation for years of above average pollution, let them spend some decades in negative pollution (removing carbon from the atmosphere) to offset for all the suffering they have caused.

I am worried about China too, but as an Indian, I can assure you that everyone in India is climate conscious and the govt. is doing its best to reach its pledges and targets.
Are the near future targets for India "up, but not that much" ?
Is that because of some per-capita quota?
For what it is worth, politically on the record, China has some very strong goals stated, and those installation/sales statistics indicate some aggression towards meeting them.
I think a lot of the worry about China is misplaced for one reason or another. (Especially with the shell game of especially US politics outsourcing so much industrial work to China and then directly blaming China for emissions that should rightfully be accounted for in US corporation bottom lines and blaming China for the outsourcing in the first place as if it weren't done precisely because of that carbon emissions shell game and the gross [fig., lol] profits on the bottom line.)
