Jonathan Watts - Which Way Will China Jump?

From Sunday Morning, 10:06 am on 1 April 2012

Jonathan Watts is the Guardian's Asia environment correspondent and author of the book When a Billion Chinese Jump. He talks to Chris about China's environmental problems and says that the rest of the world has good reason to be concerned. But the reason is not what you might expect - it's because China is becoming more like us, and we are the problem, living way beyond the planet's means. Chinese people want a better lifestyle too, but will it jump towards something more eco-friendly to achieve that?
