Industry, electricity, and transportation are responsible for approximately 78% of global green house gas emissions, contributing to record high temperatures, untimely seasons, and freak weather conditions. China's forest city project, and others like it, attempt to reduce, eliminate, or negate the emissions from all three of these sectors at once, in an attempt to slow and halt global warming. Green and carbon neutral cities will, are, and can be created through clean forms of energy, and enough plants and trees to offset the polluting emissions.
