According to a new paper published in the journal Nature Climate Change, China may be under-reporting its annual carbon emissions by as much as 1.4 billion tonnes a year - roughly the amount that Japan, the world's fourth-largest emitter of carbon dioxide (CO2), pumps out each year. China is the world's largest CO2 emitter and produces around a quarter of global carbon emissions. But according to the new study, which used more than a decade of official Chinese data, China's carbon emissions could be 20% higher than previously thought. It says the emission discrepancy in 2010 is equivalent to about 5% of the total global output (in 2008).
