This page indicates that the 2023 numbers are out but I can’t get access to the report. anyone got the new version of this chart?

I ran the numbers real quick. (energy transition investment dollars / gdp) China 0.037 USA 0.005

China spent 7 times more of its GDP on energy transition investment.

I mean, China is obviously dominating but those US numbers look better than I would have thought. IDK if they might be deceptive though

“investment” in the US rarely leads to stuff getting built

it does result in a lot of consultants buying condos though

1.4 billion people emit more than 0.35 billion, while those 1.4 billion people are also the world’s factory

yeah no shit. China’s per capita CO2 emissions are half that of the US.
