China is the single most polluting country in the world. China is the world's largest source of carbon emissions and facing severe air quality issues, particularly in major cities where pollution levels often exceed international health standards.They have a massive coal fire energy production, the dirtiest energy on the planet.
China's cultivated land have been polluted, with contaminated water being used to irrigate 31.5 million acres (21,670 km2.), and another 2 million acres (1,300 km2) have been covered or destroyed by solid waste. As As China's waste production increases, insufficient efforts to develop capable recycling systems have been attributed to a lack of environmental awareness. These are not partners that offer us anything.
For more than 30 years, Canada and China have worked together on the environment. 🇨🇦🇨🇳
In Beijing this week, we’re deepening that cooperation to lower global emissions, protect nature, and open new opportunities for Canadian clean tech.
