In China for the Olympics they shut off major industry near where the foreigners were because the smog would of been too bad to have athletic events. Don't assume it's a single nation state actor and don't attach your Political beliefs to you action plan.

For example ocean plastic pollution.

The drive of China to get economic success and their inability to control ecological damage is a statement. In the US where multiple parties compete and strive for advantage means if you can present a clear and present danger in ecology you have a chance to make changes. In China with it's control by a small oligarchy who will not be affected by eco catastrophes unless it get real bad is the worse danger to our world.With their media control and top down control there will be no grass roots movements like in Europe, Japan and North America for eco recovery. India and industrialized Africa have the same limited numbers of people in control and equivalent issues.
China is the greatest threat to our global ecology though.
