Interesting list. It's always important to remember that i) China's per capita emissions are still one-quarter that of the #2 emitter, the United States, ii) China's aggregate emissions over time are still well below that of the western, developed world.

Good point. Thanks, Simon.

Yes I've read that about the high expense of car licensing in Shanghai; a policy far more radical than any other for a city in the world that I'm aware of.

There's so much going on in China at the moment it is hard to keep a track of it. But they are certainly deeply involved in installing new and better energy technologies right across the country.

The thing about the Chinese is that there's no fanfare. An announcement is made and then they just get on with it.
