Daily commentary about China by TIME correspondents.
The "Roof of the World" Gets Warmer...
A recently published piece from the Worldwatch Institute's China Watch Report on global warming's impact on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau. A little tendentious (ie, pay no attention to that small underdeveloped country over in the corner that this year will become the world's largest emitter of CO2 gases, it's all the fault of the United States and other “industrialized countries…”), but an interesting read nonetheless.
