China: We're No. 1 in emissions - POLITICO.com Print View


China: We're No. 1 in emissions - POLITICO.com Print View: "China is finally admitting that it is the world's largest source of greenhouse gas emissions.

Over the past four years, Beijing officials have tried to avoid the No. 1 mantle by saying the pollution data needs more study, or that a better point of analysis was to look at per capita emissions.

But Xie Zhenhua, China's top climate diplomat, didn't skirt the subject when he met with reporters Tuesday to outline his country's negotiation stance headed into U.N.-led climate negotiations in Cancun, Mexico."
