Subject: China’s source of energy and its global warming dangers.
Dear Andrew Yager:
For the past few decades, China has been using coal to power its infrastructure. Coal is a nonrenewable source of energy that requires millions of years to renew, and at the same time, it is also a very dirty source of energy that releases a variety of unhealthy, chemicals including Mercury, Carbon Dioxide, Uranium and Sulfur. China accounted for 15 percent of the world’s green houses in 2000. 66% of China’s power comes from burning coal. Mining and burning coal is unhealthy for the environment and the people, it can cause pollute the local water system, put crops in danger, effect the local ecosystem, produce acid rain, and cause countless health issues. The damage done by coal mining can be irreversible, meaning it won’t go back to the way it was before human influence, for many lifetimes. The Chinese lack coal mining regulation, which makes it very dangerous to work in the mines. There was a total of 6027 deaths in 2004 from coal mines. In order to influence China into converting to renewable energy, it is necessary to come up with a good plan so that they aren’t losing economical gain from the process. By assigning a country like Norway or Switzerland, we can have them work with China to come up with a renewable energy solution, because China has all the available natural renewable resources of energy, such as wind, solar, water and the debatable nuclear, they have the utmost full advantage when it comes to converting. By introducing a good solution to the problem that will keep China’s boom and will make the lives of the many Chinese country folks healthier and safer, we then can convince China to change its dirty ways.
I understand China is not the easiest country to work with, but if we look at the bigger picture there is an even greater potential. After China becomes the example for change from fossil fuels to renewable energy, it would influence other countries like India and Korea to use alternative energies to power there infrastructure.
Sincerely,
Mr. Sebastian L. Shields
