China outsources carbon emissions
2013-06-11 12:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: China is outsourcing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions within its own borders, a study has found. This is much like the way in which rich countries in the West have long turned to China to produce cheap goods, thereby outsourcing dirty emissions. Poorer areas such as Inner Mongolia produced 80% of CO2-related emissions for goods used in richer coastal areas such as Beijing and Shanghai. The scientists, writing in PNAS, are concerned this trend will spread. That is, if China continues to...

China's rich provinces outsource emissions to less developed areas
2013-06-11 10:48:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Rich coastal provinces of China are outsourcing their greenhouse gas emissions by importing goods from less developed provinces, according to scientists. The practice makes it far less likely that China - the world's biggest emitter - will reach its climate goals, the study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences said. "Recent studies have shown that the high standard of living enjoyed by people in the richest countries often come at the expense of CO2 emissions produced...

Global carbon emissions hit record high in 2012
2013-06-11 10:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: China led a rise in global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to a record high in 2012, casting doubt over the chances of limiting global warming to what scientists regard as an acceptable level. Falls in CO2 emissions by the United States and Europe were offset by China, lifting worldwide emissions by 1.4 percent to 31.6 billion tonnes, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Monday. Scientists have said that the rise in global average temperature needs to be limited to less than 2 degrees...
