In the past three years, China has emerged as a world leader in the development of renewable energy as a part of its growing efforts to combat climate change and create new jobs in clean technologies. ClimateWorks traveled to China to get a sense of the scale of wind power development and talk to some local experts about China's goals for reducing pollution and growing its renewable energy industry.

  • @flagship21 China Welcomes You. Friend

  • ZHONG GUO HAO!!!!!!

  • @beancube2010 ahah i dont see usa doing anything so point neglected china is the lead of wind power sadly i hope usa at least catcehs up on solar

  • If Chinese really have the passion of alternative energy, they should build buildings on coastal water and use vertical turbines both above and under water surface to convert wind energy and water stream energy to electricity. People need roads and power stations for those traffics to those coastal islands anyway, don't they?

  • @rrXIII Modern power plants (in the EU, not US) can recycle their fuel so only low-level radioactive waste is produced.

    Whoever told you nuclear waste does not decompose is full of shit. It is decomposing all the time, just at different rates depending on the type of waste. In any case high level radioactive waste can also be safely stored in lead containers or thrown into the oceans below the tectonic plates to burn.

    A coal plant releases more radiation into the air than a nuclear plant does.

  • @brianng9 that waste material does not decompose buddy,

  • i posted the july 2010 clean energy report on my channel

  • @rrXIII How are fission plants not green? As long as the waste material is properly sealed and handled (Which it almost always is), they produce 0 greenhouse gases. Plus they create enormous amounts of energy.
