      Yeah, improve society by murdering millions of people. And the result was really worth it because Russia or East Germany were really awesome places with a high standard of living in 1989.

        electrification and movement from fossil fuels to renewables benefits more than just people in china, climate change is coming for everyone. any country (/especially/ one doing manufacturing for others) that is making strides like this should be learned from.
