A really good article, although it's weird for the NYT to try so hard to frame the explosion of cheap green energy technology coming from China as somehow potentially nefarious or dangerous. Yes, China is prioritizing its own national interests as it exports green energy tech. And? It's still an overwhelmingly positive development for pretty much all of humanity.
