"With the United States on its way to official withdrawal, China and Germany are expected to take the lead promoting the Paris Agreement. This is despite China’s role in constructing over 700 new coal-fired power plants around the world. According to Urgewald, an environmental group based in Berlin, some of these new coal plants will be built in countries that burn little or no coal today.
While many of the coal plants will be located in China, about one-fifth of the capacity of these new coal power plants is going to be located in other countries.
China is not alone in constructing coal-fired power plants. According to Urgewald, about 1,600 coal plants are planned or under construction in 62 countries; this data comes from the Global Coal Plant Tracker portal.
If constructed, these new plants would increase global coal-fired capacity by 43 percent. According to Urgewald, 11 of the world’s 20 biggest coal plant developers are Chinese."
The article is 12 months old but why can't Australia have just one? WTF!
