China's State Council recently made public its green goals for the next five years. The most ambitious  target is a reduction of  almost 20% in greenhouse gas emissions. It also sets a cap of total coal consumption at five billion tons  for smog-plagued cities, however, their goal is to reduce coal use by as early as 2017.
