What would China do?

So here is the question of the day: What would China do if it encountered the same OIl spill we have in the Gulf? We in the US tend to think about China, as inferior when it comes to Environmental issues. But when the Chinese have a crisis, they surely know how to mobilize their people, and they have plenty of them, to react to a natural disaster. Any man-made disaster would meet equal force. So I ask you to think creatively here and ask yourself what would China do if they had this Oil mess? They changed the course of the Yangtze River, they built the Great Wall and they gave us all a treat of perfection in the opening ceremony of the Olympics. Why can't we be that good? And why aren't we doing better? Is it beyond us to ask for help from others who might have equipment to deal with this Oil spill or are we too proud as a country to even consider asking others for help? Who are we anyway?
