The Ethical Problem of China’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions In the year 2006‚ China took over the title of the “largest greenhouse gas emitter” from America‚ producing the most overall greenhouse gas quantity annually. The Energy Information Administration predicts that China’s emissions will grow at a remarkable 4.2% per year between 1990 and 2030 a growth rate that is higher than any other emitter. The climate problem in China is very serious; if China’s trend toward producing greenhouse gases still

According to a study done by Canada’s “One-Tonne Challenge” project every Canadian is directly responsible for at least five tonnes of greenhouse gases each year (Welcome).

a reduction in greenhouse emissions? The target for the reduction in greenhouse emissions of greenhouse gases was to only be 5.2%. The USA had the chance to sign it but only for 7% due to the point that they are 1 of the countries which produces most of the CO2. (The more the USA has to reduce the more they help our planet.) 3) Why where India and China not obliged to reduce any greenhouse emission?
