It wouldn't surprise me if the Chinese somehow manage to never exceed 400B tons.

They're already at 200B and the rate is currently at 10B/year and rising rapidly.

So I strongly suspect they will.

Whoops, right. I forgot to subtract what they had already emitted. So it puts it more like ~20 years away.
