I am afraid not.. mainly cos China were in denial for a long time.. they were one of the worse polluters in their rush to become a wealthy nation. SO it took them a long time to accept it and then knuckle down and start cleaning up their act...
However, it is true to say that CHina are enjoying their new-found status as leaders of the world in tackling climate change. I am sure it will help them consolidate their influence around the world.
If they could have invented it I am sure they would but on this one all they did was cash in on others who were more hesitant/
For anyone interested, here a link about climate change directed to children in grades 5-8 by NASA.
Even I could understand the basics.
