Why is everything always converted into something that the west needs to fix? 
Probably because we consume the most resources per capita and drive demand? And because you’re only looking at articles written in English?
Did you misspell "China"?
China isn't the end destination of all the stuff they manufacture.
If you pay somebody to murder someone you're still legally responsible for that death, even if you avoided actually pulling the trigger. Same shit with resource use and pollution - paying China to produce stuff for you rather than doing it in-country doesn't magically absolve you of all responsibility for the resource use and environmental destruction that is required to maintain a modern western lifestyle.
