IMG_9469_p.jpg In 2008 China became the worlds largest emitter of greenouse gases, fuelled by high levels of economic growth and electricity mainly being generated by dirty, highly polluting coal fired power stations. The Chinese are also investing heavily in renewable energy projects. Here a wind farm is built near Hujifumo in Heilongjiang Province northern China.

IMG_2469_air pollution.jpg In 2008 China officially became the worlds largest emitter of C02 (greenhouse gases), largely driven by its ever increasing demand for energy most of which is met by producing electricity from coal fired power stations.  Worryingly China is building a new coal fired power station every week and has huge reserves of coal, much of which is very low grade and highly polluting. Slum dwellings in Suihua, Heilongjiang Province pump out coal smoke into an already highly polluted atmosphere.

IMG_2773_grain.jpg China is in the middle of the worst drought in 50 years. Precipitation totals have fallen significantly across most of China's northern provinces. 60% of China's 669 major cities face water shortages, of these 110 face serious water shortages. One of the main consequences of this is that many areas that previously produced much of China's food are seeing crop yields falling, leading to a loss of long term food security. Computer simulation shows that as Climate change accelerates, it will lead to food shortages across large parts of china. This shot shows a Maize storage depot in Heilongjiang Province, northern China

IMG_9220_cooking.jpg A Chinese family cooks on a stove fuelled by dried corn stalks and husks which not only cooks the food and heats the water but also heats the house. People living such a lifestyle have a very small carbon footprint, though an increasingly aspirant wealthy population  are changing to more western, carbon hungry lifestyles part of the reason that china is now the worlds single largest emitter of greenhouse gasses.
