China has been working a long time at both controlling emissions and curbing energy dependency. Once hostile to Western-imposed environmental regulations, they've made great headway into curbing pollution and investing in alternative energy... the Three Gorges Dam, their massive solar panel manufacturing concerns...

Unlike the current US government, they're playing the long game. Shale gas doesn't last forever...

There does seem to have been a change of attitude.

So, better than the Paris Awards Accords?
