And then China's emissions declined in 2025. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45108292
The quote from your link:
> China’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions fell by 1% in the final quarter of 2025, likely securing a decline of 0.3% for the full year as a whole
So, increase of 4.7% and then (likely) decrease of 0.3% is a great progress?
I would rather wait for official IEA data before claiming victory: https://www.iea.org/countries/china/emissions
