And, maybe they might even offer to buy it? China is, I believe, soon facing an absolute disaster. We are Aussies, we believe in a fair go. We always help people in trouble. We are good at that. And, we can be the heroes of the world.

Stephen, that suggestion is so impractical in so many dimensions of foreign policy and on so many levels I wonder whether you were just stirring (:-)...?

China's response to global warming does deserve careful research though, and one could begin with a paper by Elisa Chih-Yin Lai published by the U.S. Wilson Centre - seehttps://www.wilsoncenter.org/publication/climate-change-impacts-chinas-environment-biophysical-impacts  It's rather dated (2009) but does set the scene.
