China has recently overtaken the U.S. as the world's top greenhouse gas emitter. But, despite the country's dependency on coal and its commitment to economic development through heavy industry, China has a huge renewable energy industry. STORYLINE: Until recently, there were only a few dozen wind generators standing here. Officials say that target might be boosted to 20 percent.
