It's a multifaceted issue, but don't kid yourself

China weighs in at 14.5% for coal. Another 1-point-some-odd for their Petro Chem. The issue is that there are a lot of companies that make up the remainder.

Demand definitely plays a role in all of this, but I don't think pushing green initiatives is a bad thing from the consumers and one of the only ways we can encourage these companies to do their part

It’s possible there’s a very specific tinge of racism and/or jingoism present in the comment previous to yours.

Multinational companies are to blame, not just India and China.
