China has ~1.4bn people they have to feed. If things go pear-shaped with the climate and food-growing cycle, their ability to do that could be substantially impaired. In a (not terribly unrealistic worst case) that could mean hundreds of millions of starving, unhappy citizens revolting and hanging their leaders from lampposts. I don't expect the CCP to deal with climate issues out of benevolence, but I do expect them to tend to their own survival.
