China has surpassed the claims of being the top- energy consumer globally. China has rejected the proofs of International Energy Agency saying it is unreliable. According to IEA calculations most of the energy comes from coal which is a heavy polluter. Hence the total accounts to the quarter of US consumption which was in the former first.
China is not the same which was in the previous decade it has become prosperous China. The blooming industries in China are helping the Chinese Families to buy many modern home electronics. Chinese Cabinet National Energy Administration announced the doubt over the statistics of IEA. The report of the rejection of IEA statistics came on last Tuesday by Xinhua.
The official even confirmed that IEA is really not understanding the efforts of China. The efforts of China to cut the use of energy,pollution and global statistics of Energy consumption. During the climate change talks China spoke about the energy consumption patterns of developed nations.
It is indeed correct from China’s stand point to assert that it is not the largest energy consumer in the world.
Also when you say that you are the largest energy consumer then you also become the largest environment polluter, which is not a tag you would like to hold.
