Global Warming Crowd Presents Road Map For China To Hinder It’s Economy While China Secures Natural Resorces For the Next Hundred Years
The global warming crowd at The New Scientist have put together a rather vague ‘road map’ for China to be “carbon (dioxide) free” by 2050. Via the aforementioned New Scientist:
IT’S a road map that will only allow green cars. By 2050, all new power sources in China will be either renewable or nuclear – and this change to a low-carbon future can take place while boosting economic growth.
Right… Sure. By the way, have you seen lithium mining or the toxic process to create solar panels? It’s not exactly an eco-friendly process.
The New Scientists are pushing their economy killing, socialist ideas by wrapping their push in free market rhetoric.
China’s low-carbon road map, presented to the Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development in Beijing last week, claims that the global shift towards low-carbon technology “will allow China to capitalise on new growth opportunities as a supplier to satisfy increasing global demand” for such technologies.
Can these guys be honest? When they say carbon, they are talking about carbon DIOXIDE, the gas all people exhale and plants use for photosynthesis, not carbon, like the sooty ash left in a fireplace after burning wood.
But the New Scientist pushes along.
To achieve a low-carbon economy by 2050, the report says the country must cut back its mining industry, introduce energy efficiency measures, construct compact eco-cities, invest in public transport and renewable energy, and install carbon capture and storage facilities.
China is actively securing natural resources across the globe to feed their economy for the next one hundred years. They are actively working in Africa to secure access to oil, gas and other natural resources. China is also working in Canada to develop the oils sands . China is not interested in cutting back on anything. They know the global warming thing is all based on junk science and eventually the fad will pass.
I’m also watching the goings-on in India. Apparently, Maoists in India are trying to take over parts of India. The parts they are trying to take over are areas that just happen to be rich in minerals.
This could be a bigger story than it first appears.
I’m watching and writing about this on Hellcat. More here:

@Scott Ball: Scott, thanks for the link. I had not seen this. And it does add more to the story about this story about China.
Thanks again.
The Chinese are simply taking advantage of the opportunity to seize the global economy. In a country with rampant overpopulation, they need jobs for all them folks. Witness the recent mine disaster. What’s a couple hundred killed?
They are building a massive high-speed train system (why doesn’t the US get the hint on this?). But, I’m sure it’s for economic reasons, having nothing to do with eco-anything. They need workers in places where they don’t have people. A lot of Chinese jobs are “migrant” jobs.
I doubt seriously that the Chinese have any plans or commitment to building “compact eco-cities.” They’re happy with what they’ve got. And what the hell is a carbon capture and storage facility? Do we usually call those trees?
