When you think of China, what kind of country do you picture - "mighty China" or "humble China"?

Your answer may tell you which side of the debate you are on when it comes to China and climate change.

Mighty China is the trainee superpower whose economy is growing at 10% a year, and has a permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council.

It has nuclear weapons, has just sent a rocket into lunar orbit, has one-trillion US dollars in reserves and is the world's second largest emitter of greenhouse gases.

Is China a poor nation? Should they be doing their share on climate change? I think so. .
