As It Boosts Renewables, China Still Can't Break Its Coal Addiction
Despite being a renewables superpower, China continues to permit and build new coal-fired power plants at a rapid pace. Analysts say the nation’s new five-year plan will ensure further coal plant expansion and jeopardize China’s ability to deliver on its climate promises.

Proposals to build coal-fired plants in China reached a record high in 2025, according to a new study by CREA.

If China was a democratic country then perhaps you could say the roles of the cold war had somehow reversed, with China being the obvious technological leader in the world, while the USA tries desperately to hold on to its empire, and relevance through naked aggression.
But going to an english-language chinese news site and seeing talk of spacewalks and space stations really drives home how history has kind of flipped.
