Three of the four major candidates for United States president have responded to America's Top 20 Presidential Science, Engineering, Technology, Health and Environmental Questions. The nonprofit advocacy group ScienceDebate.org has posted their responses online. Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, and Jill Stein had all responded as of press time, and the group was awaiting responses from Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson.

    It's actually more that China doesn't give a crap about pollution or consequences for the average citizen, since all projects like this would perforce be NIMBY for the CCP. That is, they are never affected by the consequences of their actions.

    BTW the CCP's vision for the future is a horribly outdated caricature of 1930's modernism. As in, discredited in every other industrialized country with the possible exception of Russia.

    While the US's CEOs' vision for the future is too rarely past the next few quarters, and hardly ever as far as 5 years.
