How about social aspects and economical aspects? China is a huge developing country and this can shake the world yall just sayin Their pollution is so bad that a huge percentage of their pop has respiratory problems. Healthcare costs and lower productivity has an economic impact too Plus China is towards the upper end of developing. For some time now their main driver of growth has been retail consumption and the service sector as wages rise and their middle class grows for the past 4-5 years industrial manufacturing and exports have been under performing. At this stage of their development going forward, factories making things to export will not be a major source of growth hence why their economy is slowing in growth rate For many years to come China will continue to manufacture a lot of goods to export, but its not really where most of their growth is gonna come from going forward. Companies already there may stay for now as China still has relatively cheap labor... But for new plants and companies looking for cheap labor, theres other Countries that are more appealing than China now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention that this would probably mean they'll conduct research on finding more efficient ways of gathering green energy; which in turn could benefit the slacking countries of our planet.

Well regardless of their motives, the result from removing Coal is the same positive result China is almost 50% of world Coal Consumption. So they being so serious about cutting down on it will actually make a huge difference on global emmissions! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
