China's clean coal policy does not regulate CO2, because it's not considered a pollutant like in the U25-02-2019 18:38
Tai Hai Chen ★★★★☆ (1041)	when Obama added it to the list in 2009, so why should the US waste money controlling CO2 when China won't? China is largest clean coal power producer https://www.cips.org/en/supply-management/news/2019/february/china-is-largest-clean-coal-power-producer/

This is much more clean burning than Bitumen. The US doesn't have a lot of Anthracite but stack scrubbers and the like can make coal a cheaper and more efficient and relatively clean source of power. So it is not a good idea for anyone to accept China's NEA as a source of really accurate information on coal power because that can change overnight with the closing of Anthracite mines.

CO2 is a naturally occurring gas in the atmosphere. It is not capable of warming the Earth. The Parrot Killer

Anthracite and Bitumen coal burn the same way, Wake. They are both carbon. They both burn just as cleanly in modern coal burning facilities.
