- Comment on UK: Human rights group threatens legal action over alleged forced labour if authorities greenlight stock listing of Chinese fast-fashion retailer Shein 2 weeks ago:
As an addition:
Since 2018, evidence of forced labour of Uyghur and other Turkic and Muslim majority peoples has emerged in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (Uyghur Region). […] Forced labour imposed by private actors is also reported, in addition to forced marriage and organ trafficking, with vulnerability primarily driven by discriminatory government practices. While China demonstrated some efforts to tackle modern slavery through sustained coordination at the national and regional levels – including by adopting a new national action plan for 2021 to 2030[…] – its overall response is critically undermined by the use of state-imposed forced labour.

- Comment on Australian economist argues China is conning the world on net zero 2 weeks ago:
There is ample evidence that the Chinese government relies on slave-like working conditions which makes the price reductions in solar questionable, and China appears to be failing nevertheless.

- Comment on Australian economist argues China is conning the world on net zero 2 weeks ago:
I don’t remember when and where, but some time ago I read a blog entry where the writer used the term, “The West bad, China bad okay”. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not about your comment alone, it’s all the others in this and other threads. If China is criticized, there come all sorts of whataboutery and distractions -some of them true, some aren’t- but it indeed follows this “The West bad, China bad okay” stance. The fact that China is failing on climate change is simply ignored, while every other country is criticized.

China’s track record regarding the fight against climate change is -very much as those of most other larger countries- an absolute disaster: climateactiontracker.org/countries/china
