Need to stop China. They are making 30+% of the entire world's carbon output and no plans to reduce that for another 7 years.
That's more than the next 6 biggest carbon polluters combined.
China has lower per capita CO₂ emissions than Europe, the United States has higher emissions than the previous two combined:

China is on track to nearly double its wind and solar capacity by 2025 and blow past the country’s 2030 clean power target five years early, according to Global Energy Monitor.
2022 - Sinopec has estimated that 10.68 million tonnes of carbon dioxide will be injected into the oilfield over the next 15 years, boosting crude oil production by nearly 3 million tonnes. Last year Sinopec captured and stored more than 1.52 million tonnes of carbon dioxide.
If anything it's the United States that needs to be stopped, and thankfully multipolarity is making this a reality soon.
