India and China Cut Power Emissions

India and China Cut Power Emissions

India and China, the world's biggest users of coal, have started to reduce the bad gases that come from making electricity.

They did this by adding lots of clean energy like wind and solar power.

This is good news because it helps stop the world from getting too warm.

In the U.S., however, the use of coal for electricity went up, which is not so good.

But overall, the bad gases from making electricity around the world stayed about the same.

Experts think China will use less coal in the future, but India will still need it to keep up with the growing need for electricity.
