China Says Global Warming Threatens Their Economy Environmental News Network Tuesday, 08 May 2007 08:01:18 EDT
Global warming could devastate China's development, the nation's first official survey of climate change warns, while insisting economic growth must come before greenhouse gas cuts.
Hotter average global temperatures fueled by greenhouse gases mean that different regions of China are likely to suffer spreading deserts, worsening droughts and floods, shrinking glaciers and rising seas, the National Climate Change Assessment states
But underscoring China's commitment to achieving prosperity even as it braces for climate change, the report rejects emissions limits as unfair and economically dangerous, citing what it says are uncertainties about global warming.
"For a considerable time to come, developing the economy and improving people's lives remains the country's primary task," the report says.
