TIANJIN, China - Whatever the differences that irked delegates from China and the United States during the six days of climate negotiations that ended here on Saturday, divisions principally defined by how each would control carbon emissions and measure progress, the unmistakable conclusion reached by most of the delegates and participants is how closely tied the two nations are to each the other.
Lying quietly below the nuanced diplomatic language of… Continue

Despite Divide at Tianjin Climate Conference, U.S. and China Cooperating on Advanced Coal Projects
TIANJIN, China - Though Chinese workers this week celebrated the 61st anniversary of the founding of the Peoples Republic of China, a holiday season as significant as July 4 in the United States, a swarm of
construction laborers at China's GreenGen coal-fired gasification power
plant were busy welding pipes, fitting massive joints, and bending
steel for forms to be filled with concrete.
Since construction on the $1 billion project…

Coal Is King In China, And Top Priority For Engineers Determined To Lower Climate Risks
TIANJIN, China – This industrious nation’s allegiance to construction projects of massive scale is as familiar to the world as the 2,500-year-old, 5,500-mile Great Wall of China, which protected the country’s northern frontier, and as imposing as the wide moats and towering red stone walls of the 600-year-old Forbidden City at the heart of Beijing.
Still, international visitors attending China’s first U.N. climate change conference are struck by the immensity of the brand new… Continue

On opposite sides of the Pacific, leaders of the world's two biggest economies and carbon polluters are plainly thinking about clean energy to power up their economies and cool the climate.
In Washington, the Environmental Protection Agency and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced their intention to extend vehicle efficiency standards that went into effect in April in order meet a national goal of 60 miles per gallon average fuel economy… Continue

In Tianjin This Week, Fresh Hope For Climate Progress
TIANJIN, China - In a gesture that signaled more urgent engagement to cool the planet, the United Nation's chief climate negotiator today opened this nation's first international climate conference by sealing a symbolic Great Climate Wall of China with an ancient proverb.

In China, Where NGOs and Nations Try Again To Make Dent in Climate Change
I'm in Tianjin, China today (see pix above) and for the next week to report on the UN Climate Conference, the first ever held in China. I spent much of the day in a Climate Action International meeting with activists from around the planet, though there were many fewer here than attended the UN climate meetings in Barcelona and Copenhagen last year.

The most direct path to the nation’s newest big oil and gas fields is U.S. Highway12, two lanes of black top that unfolds from Grays Harbor in Washington State and heads east across the top of the country to Detroit.
