Discuss China's initiatives in "green" energy
What will be an ideal response?
Historically, most of China's energy has come from coal and other dirty resources. Given its large population and its rapid rate of economic development, this strategy was clearly unsustainable. In recent years, China has begun to embrace "green" energy technology, including wind and solar. This strategy is designed, in part, to avoid environmental damage. In addition, as China implements these technologies, it is learning how to build them domestically, with the idea of increasing their industrial base as they also turn to manufacturing these technologies and selling them on the international market. China has also built the Three Gorges Dam along with other dams as a source of hydroelectric energy.
