China, by some reports the world’s largest carbon dioxide emitter, is a “crucial target” of the Live Earth concerts’ anti-global warning message, the United Nations representative in Beijing said Thursday.
China’s business center of Shanghai is one of seven cities staging the 24-hour concerts on Saturday aimed at raising awareness of climate change.
The location is poignant since the city is the linchpin of the booming Chinese economy – blamed for spewing ever-growing levels of green house gasses into the atmosphere.
But . . . but . . it’s America that’s evil! We can’t blame the Chinese worker’s paradise!
One thing that’s gone unnoticed is that the Bushies have been working to reduce industrial methane — methane being 23 times as much of a greenhouse gas as carbon dioxide and not a necessary byproduct of industry.
Maybe they can get China to go along.
