China lops decades off Earth's lifetime

http://news.independent.co.uk/world/asia/article1768827.ece

The explosive growth of the Chinese economy over the past seven years has been linked with a rise in emissions of man-made methane, a study has found. Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas and, molecule for molecule, it is about 20 times as potent as carbon dioxide in its ability to exacerbate global warming.


I'm sure that megacorporations support the industry, considering a large majority of their manufactured goods come from China. Does this mean we can blame Wal-Mart for the death of humanity now?
