A man carries a shovel as he walks through a coal storage area in the city of Wanzhou November 2, 2007. In China, the world's largest producer and consumer of coal, demand for the dirty hydrocarbon has nearly doubled in the past five years. Coal accounts for about 70 percent of primary energy consumption in the world's fourth-largest economy. REUTERS/David Gray (CHINA)
