, China’s most important infrastructure projects may be at risk from climate change. He also stated that China’s average temperature has been rising faster than anywhere else in the world. The infrastructure refers to the major structural elements that make an economy function. These include roads and railways networks, bridges and tunnels as well as power generation, distribution, and power generation. Interview with Study Times: Mr. Guoguang said that climate change is responsible for the increased frequency of climate-related catastrophes like heatwaves. He said that weather-related catastrophes could severely undermine major projects such as the Qinghai Tibet railway, high altitude, and Three Gorges Dam which is the largest installed power plant in the world. Climate change is threatening major infrastructure projects like the Three Gorges Dam. Image: Wikipedia. Global warming threatens major infrastructure projects. Mr. Guoguang stated that his country was experiencing a faster rate of global warming than average. He said northern China had seen its temperatures rise more quickly than those in the southern regions. Guoguang also stated that the winters are warming faster than the summers. He said that the most hot decade in China over the past 100 decades has been this century’s first. Climate change must be addressed for China to have long-term sustainable growth. China is trying to tackle this problem right now. He said that climate change was a tool which could help China’s economic transformation. Atmospheric pollution is a major cause of serious health issues in China, particularly those living in the larger cities. About sixty percent of carbon dioxide emissions in the country are caused by coal. Many Chinese cities are suffering from serious pollution. China is the country that emits the most greenhouse gases, surpassing the United States. It is trying to shift to renewable energy and less polluting natural gas, according to the government. In 2014, the United States and China jointly announced that they would aim to achieve a maximum in rapidly rising emissions for 2020.. China concerned about reporting about the pollution crisis. While they may appear to be transparent about its huge pollution problem, Chinese authorities have been very cautious and sensitive about reporting about it. A well-known online documentary, Chai Jing, revealing the human costs of pollution in China, was published by Chinese censors. They quickly stopped all Chinese websites from publishing the video. The footage was watched by two hundred million Chinese citizens who were shocked at its content before it was removed. Chai Jing’s documentary, “Chai Jiing,” was on Chinese websites for six more days before being taken down. It was viewed by 200 millions of people during that period. Under the Dome, the documentary that was made by Ms. Jing spread quickly on the Internet and drew harsh criticism from the Chinese government. Ms. Jing highlighted the most vulnerable and the worst-affected by China’s toxic pollution in the documentary. Shaanxi provincial residents were badly affected by the smoke from coal-fired power plants. Six-year-old girl, who claimed she’d never seen blue skies before was featured. It was shown that several factories were breaking the law while officials spoke out, admitting that they often ignored rules.
