IMG_9236_food supply.jpg China is in the middle of the worst drought in 50 years. Precipitation totals have fallen significantly across most of China's northern provinces. 60% of China's 669 major cities face water shortages, of these 110 face serious water shortages. One of the main consequences of this is that many areas that previously produced much of China's food are seeing crop yields falling, leading to a loss of long term food security. Computer simulation shows that as Climate change accelerates, it will lead to food shortages across large parts of china. This shot shows a Maize drying in Heilongjiang Province, northern China

IMG_9257_river bed.jpg China is in the middle of the worst drought in 50 years. Precipitation totals have fallen significantly across most of China's northern provinces. 60% of China's 669 major cities face water shortages, of these 110 face serious water shortages. Climate change modelling shows that Northern China is going to get significantly drier leading to crop failure and desertification which is already happening in many places. Rivers across China are suffering with many running at critically low levels. Some of this is due to over extraction of water but increasingly is due to climate change. This river is just north of Beijing in Heilingjong province.

IMG_9340_reconstruction.jpg In 2008 China officially became the worlds largest emitter of C02 (greenhouse gases), largely driven by its ever increasing demand for energy most of which is met by producing electricity from coal fired power stations. A large part of China's carbon footprint is the construction industry. In most cities they are tearing down the old slums and replacing them with modern high rise apartment blocks. As they ever increasigly wealthy chinese families move into them their energy consumtion rises as they purchase TV's, fridge's, freezers, etc. all of which consume energy.

Worryingly China is building a new coal fired power station every week and has huge reserves of coal, much of which is very low grade and highly polluting. Piles of coal in Harbin, northern China

IMG_9357_farmhouse.jpg In 2008 China became the worlds largest emitter of greenouse gases, fuelled by high levels of economic growth and electricity mainly being generated by dirty, highly polluting coal fired power stations. The Chinese are also investing heavily in renewable energy projects. Nearly every housing complex that I came across in many cities in northern china had solar water heaters on their roof. These modern farmers houses have been built by the local communist arty on the outskirts of Suihua city in northern China.
