golbal warming is happening

Because of man-made greenhouse gas emissions the earth is dangerously warming up. Most greenhouse gas pollution comes from burning fossil fuels such as coal to make electricity.

If we do nothing to stop it, climate change will cause severe water shortages, rising sea levels will swallow cities, and pest outbreaks will sicken people and kill crops.

One of the early signs we are already experiencing is an increase in extreme weather events such as destructive storms, drought and floods.
China's rapid economic development has lifted millions out of poverty but has come at a huge environmental cost.

An explosive number of factories, coal-fired power stations and massive construction projects have made China, along with the US, the world's top greenhouse gas emitter.
