China Trying to be an Environmental Leader
By Paul Bedard, Washington Whispers
China is about to get an image make-over, thanks to President Obama's trip there this week to talk trade, the economy, Iran, and the environment. Obama aides say Beijing, for the first time, is trying to be a good international partner and environmental leader. The nation that's building one coal plant a month is green? Yes, if only because Beijing was choking on pollution. The Center for American Progress says that China realizes its mistakes and is moving to cut carbon emissions. It's also building clean-coal plants, taxing gas-guzzling cars, and planting forests.

yangkee you are wrong

US agree to help China to go green
Did I get this all wrong or someone else did? When China help Africa with its infrastructure, China may lend African money and may actually build the infrastructures, but China will not pay for the projects.
When the US agreed to help China with control of polution, is the US going to pay for the polution control? I think someone got the wires crossed. China need help but China is not short of money. I do not know the details, but I do not think US tax payers will get stuck with the bill. If I am correct, Japan is also helping China with its polution, I did not hear Japanese tax payers complaining. On the contrary, Japanese companies are laughing all the way to the banks helping the Chinese. But then, Japanese are smart people.
