Most of the energy production in China is comprised of coal, which in 2006 accounted for 76.7% of total energy production. Crude oil had a 20.4%, natural gas had 3.0%, and hydro-, nuclear-, and wind-power accounted for the remaining 7.2%.
To this day, China is still mainly using coal as its main energy source. Coal is the worst fossil fuel; it is even worse than oil! There is no such thing as clean coal, by the way, for those of you who have heard of it. It is completely fiction.
It is very overwhelming to see the data of china's energy consumption on a spreadsheet. Clearly something needs to be done, and awareness is always the first step to revolution.
