First, Steve misunderstood me...we should keep this discussion limited
to environmental and energy NGs, not political ones. So it's staying
on the above 4 NGs.
China IS a shingin example because they are taking energy seriously.
They are, simply put, exploring *every* option bar none. From wind, to
tidal, to all forms of solar, to nuclear (160 GWs being planned), to
clean coal, to dirty coal, to bio diesel. You name it, they are
exploring it, and backing it up to the tune of billions of USD worth
of R&D.
