Guardian: China, the world's biggest greenhouse gas emitter, will limit its total emissions for the first time by the end of this decade, according to a top government advisor. He Jiankun, chairman of China's Advisory Committee on Climate Change, told a conference in Beijing on Tuesday that an absolute cap on carbon emissions will be introduced. "The government will use two ways to control CO2 emissions in the next five-year plan, by intensity and an absolute cap," Reuters reported He as saying. Though...
China Pledges Cap Carbon Emissions: Obama's Bilateral Talks Succeeded

Daily Kos: The Pacific ocean is warming rapidly. This is apparently the early stage of a developing El Nino which will likely lead to record global warmth in the next 2 years. The day after President Obama announced his plan to cut carbon emissions from U.S. power plants 30% from 2005 levels, China's climate chairman has announced that, for the first time, China will place an absolute cap on carbon emissions. In tandem, these announcements are critical to stopping runaway climate warming because China and the...
EPA's plan to cut carbon emissions could shift energy mix

USA Today: The Obama administration's historic plan to reduce carbon emissions from existing power plants, unveiled Monday, could hasten the nation's shift from coal toward natural gas, energy efficiency and renewable sources such as wind and solar. The controversial proposal by the Environmental Protection Agency calls for a 30% national cut in power-plant emissions of heat-trapping carbon dioxide - below 2005 levels - by 2030, but it gives states varying reduction goals, depending on their power mix. ...
Cutting Carbon Emissions Best Way to Combat Global Warming, Study Says

Nature World: Green technology and sustainability efforts are all well and good, but a new UCLA report says that the best way to combat global warming is to cut carbon emissions, coinciding with the Obama administration's new proposal to reduce such emissions. "We found that climate engineering doesn't offer a perfect option," study leader Daniela Cusack said in a UCLA news release. "The perfect option is reducing emissions. We have to cut down the amount of emissions we're putting into the atmosphere if, in...
