Yes but instead of building a ton of useless buildings that they later blew up, or the various empty cities with no purpose, they could have gone even bigger on renewables.

What really blows my mind is the missed opportunity by China (and India to an extent). Instead of sinking trillions into building useless highways, buildings, and entire cities, all in the name of growing gdp, they could have dumped it into renewables.
Instead they're expanding the use of coal to continue to power their industry. Morons.
