Greenpeace is so nucking futs. They can take a very sound concept that the Chinese have been ignoring, that is diversifying the tree stands the million Chinese laborers plant each year, and mix it in with a wholy unsustainable concept that is ridiculous on it’s face, thereby making Greenpeace’s entire argument lose all face to the Chinese bureaucrats who would make decisions on the matter.
You can not put windpower generation in a desert that has sand storms with the intensity and massive airborne particulate mass as seen in Western China.
The massive bureaucracy that has been created for reforestation could easily diversify their tree nurseries though. Driving through China seeing 100,000 trees on the outskirts of a city all of the same species and same size is a sad sight, one of the more striking memories I have of my time there.
