> The largest polluter in the world is a Communist country, and in the last 30 years their CO2 emissions have sextupled

I guess you're talking about China here, who has a supposed "socialist market economy" (with strong private sector, stock markets and foreign investments), high wealth inequality, authoritarian governance, private property ownership and very low social welfare.

The only way China could be considered communist would be because it's a one-party state with a self-proclaimed party with "Communist" in the name, but in reality and on the ground, China isn't communist at all so not a great example.

Also, they largely pollute to produce the shit we then can buy. Meaning it is also our pollution what they are doing an we support it by buying it.
