Explanation:

- Option 1, A: This part of the sentence is talking about stopping the financing of coal-power projects abroad. It is grammatically correct and clear.

- Option 2, B: This part should be consistent with the tense and structure of the sentence. "Adding that" is not correctly connecting the clauses. It should be "they add that," to create a proper conjunction with the previous clause. Your choice here highlights the correct error.

- Option 3, C: This part correctly discusses emissions being dwarfed. It is clear and well-structured.

- Option 4, D: This part correctly states that China generates a significant amount of coal power domestically. There is no grammatical or structural issue.

- Option 5, No error: There is indeed an error, as noted in Option 2. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

Option 2, B is the correct answer.
