Talking about China...
Quote:China’s latest energy megaproject shows that coal really is on the way out
The Chinese province of Anhui built a massive floating solar farm on top of an abandoned coal mine.
An even larger floating solar plant will come online by May 2018.
Due to rising concerns surrounding air pollution-related deaths, China is trying to invest more heavily in renewable energy projects.
The new solar farms are part of the global shift away from energy generated from fossil fuels.
According to a 2016 study, the top contributor of air pollution-related deaths in China is the burning of coal. The team of Chinese and American researchers behind the study said that pollution from coal caused 366,000 premature deaths in 2013. [Why don't Chinese use Trump's clean coal?]
To improve the country's air quality, the Chinese government vows to spend at least $360 billion on clean energy projects and create 13 million new renewable energy jobs by 2020. China is already one of the world's biggest investor in alternative energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
