Wrong..
• East to West Pollu;on Transfer • Focus is on richer, coastal provinces • Environmental Ministry is s;ll weak • Environmental laws are s;ll weak • Air Pollu;on Plan has faced many issues and headwinds
• There is no clear economic plan B • Energy reform s;ll stalling • What about water? What about carbon emissions?
• Make no mistake – China is coal and carbon emissions king
