"leading the world in destroying it" do you have an actual source for that or are you purely basing this on carbon emissions alone?

Tbh I feel that in terms of environmental degradation, the biggest problem with China is the overfishing and their massive amounts of plastic pollution. East Asia is way worse about proper plastic disposal than the western nations are.
