China’s chief climate change negotiator says the country has no plans to cap its greenhouse gas emissions for the time being, state media reported today.
Su Wei, who led China’s negotiating team at the U.N. climate talks in Copenhagen in December, said yesterday that China “could not and should not” set an upper boundary on its greenhouse gas emissions right now because the country’s economy is still growing, so its carbon emissions must be allowed to increase.
The country is currently the world’s biggest carbon polluter.
Su said China is still committed to making its economy more energy-efficient. Its government has pledged that the country will reduce its carbon intensity — the measure of greenhouse gas emissions per unit of gross domestic product — by 40 to 45 percent by 2020 based on 2005 levels, and Su said that pledge will be a binding part of China’s next two five-year economic development plans.
The country submitted plans to fight climate change to the United Nations but described them as voluntary, and has not formally endorsed the Copenhagen deal
