Are the climate changers on the wrong track?

I was surprised to find an article that shows that air pollution in the US and Europe had been steadily decreasing since the 1970’s. This reduction in man-made aerosols and particles has resulted in much more powerful and plentiful Atlantic hurricanes. The article shows that because the pollution in Asia is still very high, there are more aerosols and particles impacting the Pacific ocean which is why the typhoons are much more gentle.

Most of the climate change efforts have not held Asia accountable for significant pollution reduction. Does this lack of accountability by Asia (China in particular) indicate that the efforts for battling climate change are not being pointed in the direction they need to be to get the greatest impact for mankind?
