Gordon Brown gives £50m green tech grant to China

Gordon Brown? Gordon Green these days. The PM is off to China, and he’s doing his Santa Claus impression. Says the Press Association:

“Prime Minister Gordon Brown has promised China £50 million in aid for “green” technology as he seeks to switch the focus of his visit to the country to climate change.

The Prime Minister has promised at least that sum will be handed out to support investment in energy efficiency, so-called “clean coal” and carbon capture in the booming Chinese economy.
