China is currently The number one producer in the world of wind and solar power, but doesn’t use it themselves (I wonder why)?

power station every week.In one year
they turn on more new coal powered electricity than Australia's total output.
China currently
controls more than 90% of the total global supply of rare
earth elements.
In the past 15 years,
China has moved
from 14th place to 2nd place in the world in published
scientific research articles.
China now possesses the fastest supercomputer on the entire globe.
At the end of March 2011,
China accumulated
US$3.04 trillion in foreign currency reserves --the largest stockpile on the entire globe.
Chinese people consume 50,000 cigarettes every second …
They are already the largest carbon dioxide emitter and their output will
rise 70% by 2020.

And we think we're
saving the planet?!
It will not make one iota of difference what we do in Australia, Canada,
the United States or anywhere else in the world; for
that matter, all the politicians are doing is
increasing our cost of living and making our
manufacturers uncompetitive in the world market, with their idiotic carbon tax,
when countries like China are growing and consuming at these
extraordinary rates.
