Can China Really Commit To Sustainable Power? (2007)
Winds of Change (2007) - How China plans to meet its Carbon emission agreements. Subscribe to Journeyman for daily current affairs and science reports: http://www.youtube.com/journeymanpictures For downloads and more information visit: http://www.journeyman.tv/?lid=57612 As world leaders meet for another round of global warming talks, the focus is likely to be on big polluters like China. The country has recently become the world’s biggest CO2 emitter. Currently, 80% of China’s energy comes from coal. Mindful of the pollution these power stations generate, the government is investing billions in renewable energy. “China is probably going to be the world’s number one renewable energy country”, predicts businessman Mark Kelleher. By 2020, 16% of the country’s energy must come from renewable sources. Much of this will be generated by wind farms. “This area has really developed since the wind power station was built”, enthuses one local. “When the wind power station came, people got jobs”.

You should ask India,can India really commit to Sustainable power?
Because India has 1.3 billion people, also the land mass of India is only less than 30% of the China's. India is much smaller country with overpopulated population -
The answer is most likely no. China's population is just too large and is urbanizing just way to fast for sustainable power, I guess Coal power plants though filthy as it may be, are just going to be in use for a while longer.

If China really wants to clean up their air AND power their immense population quickly. .they should go almost entirely nuclear. Nuclear energy is the best clean solution there is. Cutting edge Nuclear facilities will be very safe. . . MUCH safer than than coal power in the long run.

To the Chinese men, if you couldn't drink, you are not a man! Well, that means all Russians are man! водка хорошо для вас.....and by the way, the Australia and European companies should work with China to reduce those CO2 emission problems.......what do you mean by making a 'killing'? Sound so negative....

Excellent video presentation ! Thank you very much for posting !
IMO, Everything about China has been absolutely stunning!
I am unable to comprehend the massive and complex circumstances they deal with each day, as a simple matter of fact.
I certainly wish WE had competent statesmen to interact with them.
The posers elected here are no more than obviously incompetent buffoons brought onto the scene to stand before the camera and pacify the citizenry.
Unfortunately, only qualifications, experience, and panache will count for anything.
Chinese representatives will be supreme negotiators our camera puppets could never even have imagined.
Again, thank you for posting these wonderful, educational videos. rc -
China doing something for the environment? Isn't this channel supposed to be informative? When did they start uploading comedy?

Why is the audio not in sync?

Thank you for your gifts GB,

Sweet, it'd be great if China can really change completely away from the current polluting economy. I'd have way more respect for their system then.
