Anotated Article on China





The article summarizes China's essential views on Emission cut backs and basically the Copenhagen Conference's main goal. The article begins with the listing of Chinese interventions and participation in the different international "green causes" and projects and later following up with a Chinese statement, which asks for consistency in the documents that will come out of Copenhagen, if any, with the old "green causes" documents and declarations.

After the portrayal of Chinese responsibility, the article makes note on the Chinese official's position on the help of developed nations towards developing nations, like China. In the quote, the Chinese official focuses on how developed nations should help developing nations even after not doing a massive effort to cut back on emissions, given that they need high production of these after high levels of consumption and production, all in order to reach the developed economy state.

Following the Chinese position, the article makes a remark on how developing nations must be left to take the right environmental measures within their own time schedule, therefore whenever they feel it's much more convenient.

Finally, the article makes a note on the meeting China had with Brazil, India, South Africa and Sudan. All of these developing nations met up to agree on the outcomes of the Copenhagen Conference, mentioning the financial help from the developed economies that they deserve, all going to back to the Chinese stand on receiving massive benefits through doing as little as possible in regards to climate change policies.
