That’s not entirely true though. Emissions from Europe aren’t really that high compared to China and India. I could be wrong but I don’t think the CCP have the same beliefs as the governments of Germany or France or even the USA.
Emissions from Europe aren’t really that high compared to China and India
India’s per capita emissions are lower than any European country except Albania, and China is only moderately higher than EU countries compared to the US, Canada, and Australia.
Total emissions are useless when populations vary so widely between countries.
That’s mostly because India and China don’t have the same standard of living as Europe and the USA. Though China in particular are trying very hard to fix that. I think some anti-climate and anti-renewable forces in the USA also don’t help.
I don’t know man. I know some of those kids in Africa, and they don’t all prioritize the environment over things like food and shelter.
For sure, but when we total up the list of top contributors, they’re nowhere near the top. So let them, because they’re not “the cause”.
I think that comment was sarcastic.
Yes, but sadly also no. They don’t play in the big leagues, but taken over the whole continent it adds up.
Africa emits about 1.45 billion tonnes of CO2 a year. Saudi Aramco emits 1.6 billion tonnes.
