The super-ministry steers economic policy in China, which many experts say has passed the United States as the biggest emitter of the greenhouse gases linked to global warming.<\/p>\n<p>Gao said that China will detail its technology proposal at a conference in Beijing next week. He indicated that the country will press its own demands for assistance to developing nations, rather than just resisting calls for acceptance of emissions targets.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nChina&#8217;s 1.3 billion people, high rate of economic growth and increasing export levels have pushed up its greenhouse-gas emissions. Under the Kyoto Protocol, China and other developing economies are not bound by specific goals to contain emissions. Negotiations on a post-Kyoto pact are to culminate in Copenhagen in December 2009.<\/p>\n<p>See <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/environmentNews\/idUSTRE49R10T20081028?feedType=RSS&amp;feedName=environmentNews&quot;
