The government of China has no interest in the environment or saving the world. Hell they have started using R-11 to make Styrofoam, something that hasn't been done in the US for at least 40 years.
They are in the position to do what ever they want with little to no opposition. Some times their will appears to help the environment, but most of the time it just destroys and pollutes.
