WASHINGTON: US experts Thursday welcomed China’s new goals to reduce the intensity of carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP in 2020 by 40 to 45 percent compared with the level of 2005.

“This new goal represents an important commitment by China to continue its aggressive existing energy conservation and renewable energy policies beyond its current five-year plan and sends a strong signal to the international community that it wants to be a constructive player at the UN Climate Conference in Copenhagen, which starts in less than two weeks,” said Julian L. Wong, senior policy analyst at the Center for American Progress.

According to Wong, this reinforced China’s pledge last week at the meeting between Chinese President Hu Jintao and his U.S counterpart Barack Obama to the “full transparency” of its mitigation actions and to “stand behind these commitments.”

“China has showed a willingness to raise clean energy targets this year when it strengthened its wind energy and solar energy goals for 2020,” Wong explained
Jonathan Lash, president of the World Resources Institute (WRI), also spoke positively of the decision made by the Chinese government on Thursday.

“As we head towards Copenhagen, the world’s two largest emitters have stepped up to the plate at the highest political level,” he said. “This shows that international engagement on climate change can produce real results.”

With the announcement by US President Barack Obama on Wednesday that he would call for a US emission-reduction target of 17 percent below 2005 levels in 2020, nearly all industrialized countries and major emerging economies have now announced emissions goals or major action plans on climate.

“Carbon intensity is the emissions produced per unit of economic output, and China’s fast-growing economy means that absolute emissions in China will rise during this period,” Lash said.

“However, China’s goal is in line with what the International Energy Agency thinks is needed to keep global greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations on a path that gives the world a chance of keeping global warming under 2 degrees Celsius, averting the worst impacts of climate change.”

He pointed out that to meet the target, China appeared committed to implement ambitious energy-efficiency and fuel-switching policies.

More Chinese men now dress to impress. At least that’s what the inaugural issue of GQ China suggests.

The fashion monthly sold 400,000 copies in October and 420,000 (till now) this month, according to media-planning consultancy Group M.

“GQ’s target readers are trendy men This is the right time for GQ to enter China’s market, because there are more potential readers now,” says Wang Feng, editorial director of GQ China, which is partly owned by US-based Conde Nast.

Traditionally, Chinese men have paid more attention to their career and family values, Wang says. “They were reluctant to accept that a man, too, needed to dress up.” But that has been changing over the past three years.

Three years ago, the L’Officiel Hommes magazine conducted a random survey in Beijing and Shanghai, which showed most men thought fashion was less important than other factors in life. The most common view was: A man should care more about his property and social status.

Women, however, have been paying more attention to grooming since the reform and opening up began in 1979.

Dou Jiangming, executive editor of Esquire China, said the last five years have seen quite a few men’s fashion magazines hitting the newsstands. Now, men have a much wider range to choose from – from Men’s Uno and Maxim to FHM and GQ China.

In fact, the first men’s fashion magazine in China was Esquire China – published with the Cosmopolitan’s Chinese edition in 1993. It became an independent magazine three years later.

NEW YORK – The launch of Wikipedia, emergence of the iPhone and the election of U.S. President Barack Obama were among the 10 most influential moments on the Internet in the past decade, according to the annual Webby awards.

Other events singled out by the New York-based International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, which has presented the annual Webby awards since 1996, were the Iranian election in 2009 when protests demonstrated the power of Twitter and other social network in reshaping democracy.

“The Internet is the story of the decade because it was the catalyst for change in not just every aspect of our everyday lives, but in everything from commerce and communication to politics and pop culture,” said David-Michel Davies, the executive director of The Webby Awards, in a statement.

“The recurring theme among all of the milestones on our list is the Internet’s capacity to circumvent old systems and put more power into the hands of ordinary people.”

Here is the Webby’s list of the 10 most influential Internet moments of the decade:

- Craigslist, the free classifieds site, expands outside San Francisco in 2000, impacting newspaper publishers everywhere

- Google AdWords launched in 2000 allowing advertisers to target their customers with laser-sharp precision

- Wikipedia, the free open-source encyclopedia, launches in 2001 and today boasts more than 14 million articles in 271 different languages and bringing strangers together on projects

- Napster shutdown in 2001, opening the file-sharing floodgates

- Google’s IPO in 2004 put the search engine on the path to powering countless aspects of our everyday lives

- Online video revolution in 2006 that led to a boom in homemade and professional content on the Internet and helped reshape everything from pop culture to politics

- Facebook opens to non-college students and Twitter takes off in 2006

- The iPhone debuts in 2007 and smartphones go from a luxury item to a necessity with an app for just about every aspect of modern life

- U.S. presidential campaign in 2008 in which the Internet changed every facet of the way campaigns are run

- Iranian election protests in 2009 when Twitter proved vital in organizing demonstrations and as a protest too

After a long day of hard work, Kevin Qian needs to unwind from the daily stress – and in P1.cn, an exclusive social networking site, he has found the perfect escape.

Like the 30-year-old IT and finance consultant, the website’s members are mainly young affluent people.

“As a young person in China, it is important to feel like an individual,” said Qian, who lives in Shanghai and has been a P1.cn member for more than a year.

“Most of the time I’m in an office wearing the same clothes as everyone else. It’s terrible. Being able to escape from that make me feel very exclusive.”

Swede Svante Jerling, the website’s co-founder, said there is a demand from affluent Chinese aged between 20 and 40 to network with their peers.

Currently, the website has a network of around 550,000 online members in cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou, most of them women.

On average, each member would spend at least 4,000 yuan ($585) a month on clothes, electronics and partying.

P1.cn founders have looked to three other online communities: Stureplan.se in Sweden for its snapshots of young, attractive, rich people; Facebook for its interactive function and asmallworld.net in the US for its invite-only system. P1.cn is three in one.

For 25-year-old Kelly Lan, who works in finance in Beijing, P1.cn is not a place to build friendships. Instead, it is for business – finding models for her own fashion shop.

“I have seen some faces on the website that could fit my clothes,” Lan said. “For me, business is the most important.”

“You can make friends, but I am a very careful person. I keep a distance from people I don’t know. (The website) It’s just for fun and looking at pictures of parties.”

To keep P1.cn exclusive, membership is only available through invitation from an existing member. Each member gets the right to invite three others to join. VIP membership cost 400 yuan a year and offers discount in nightclubs, KTV and shopping malls.

Jerling said services are developed to let this group of people network with those who share similar lifestyles.

“We have trend scouts who invite people to night clubs, department stores and high-end events,” he said.

P1.cn is not just loaded with beautiful people, but also filled with advertising from top brands like Bentley, Canon and Versace.

“We can find our potential client here immediately,” said Stella Jun, marketing manager at Lamborghini. “Bigger communities don’t give us that insight. We want to be seen with young affluent people.”

With P1.cn attracting larger numbers of hits, Jerling is optimistic about the company’s future and its long-term goals.

“China did not only survive the global economy crisis, it continued to expand,” he said. “It is really the place to be when it comes to dealing with luxury consumption.”

LONDON – A new show on human identity tackles one of life’s most fundamental questions — what, or who, is the real me?

Scientific advances from fingerprinting to DNA profiles provide some answers to what distinguishes one person from another, but they do little to address the fascination and anxiety people feel over their identity.

“Identity: 8 Rooms, 9 Lives” at the Wellcome Collection in central London focuses on nine individuals whose lives have been bound up in various issues associated with identity.

From “twins” born three years apart to sex change pioneer April Ashley and the Big Brother reality TV show, the exhibition centres on the themes of how and why people differ and to what extent they can change from the person they were at birth.

Ashley was one of the first people to undergo gender reassignment in Britain, and the room dedicated to her story traces her often difficult path from man to woman and the legal and emotional complications it caused.

The exhibition features newspaper articles from a 1969 trial when Arthur Corbett successfully sought to have his marriage to Ashley annulled on the basis that Ashley had been born a male.

By ruling in Corbett’s favor, the court based its judgment on chromosomal evidence and disregarded Ashley’s psychological profile and surgery. It also set a precedent only overturned with the introduction of the Gender Recognition Act of 2004.

TWINS HOLD CLUES

Another room tells the story of twins born into the Hinch family who were actually born nearly three years apart because they were separated through the freezing and delayed development of one embryo.

Twins hold particular fascination when considering identity, because their similar DNA profiles and frequent physical resemblance do not necessarily mean they grow up to replicate each other’s characters and interests.

Francis Galton is also featured in the exhibition for his proposal that humans must be divisible into types and his subsequent search to find a scientific basis for the theory.

The Victorian scientist was obsessed with measuring and analyzing vast ranges of human traits, and, the show’s organizers argue, could be credited with inventing a “science of identity”.

“The focus (of the show) is a self-conscious attempt to think about who we are and how society pins down our place in the social mix,” said Ken Arnold, head of public programs at the Wellcome Trust, a charity which funds research into human and animal health.

“It tries to capture that sense in which what the science tells us and what Big Brother tells us sort of have an influence on each other.”

The show, which runs from November 26 to April 6, 2010, is part of a wider project on identity being organized to mark the 10th anniversary of the Human Genome Project, or the sequencing of the human genome in 2000.

That year also marked the first British series of the Big Brother television show which the Wellcome Trust associated with our desire to find out more about who we are.

GREENWICH, Connecticut – Fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger’s luxury estate in Connecticut has sold for $20 million, about $8 million below its original asking price.

Sotheby’s International Realty says the 20,000-square-foot (1,860-sq. meter) Greenwich mansion is being purchased by a family who toured it in September.

The mansion has eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms. It also features a 2,000-bottle wine cellar, indoor basketball court, sauna, massage room with a waterfall and home theater.

Hilfiger purchased the home in 2005 for $18 million. It had been on the market since February 2008.

The designer has moved to New York City.

The mansion is located on Connecticut’s Gold Coast, a bastion of suburban perfection that’s home to Martha Stewart and is considered the inspiration for the Stepford Wives.
