We shouldn't waste trillions to reduce our CO2 if China is going to add triple what we reduce.
That's ignorant. And dangerous.
China did much worse than doing nothing.
Why do you think China produces so much pollution? Who gains from it? Who gains from their lax environmental oversight and poor worker conditions? Hmmmm.....could it be the lardass typing on that computer there? Or could it be the waddling American stumbling out in his plastic flipflops made in China wearing a t-shirt made in China and then using his phone made in China? I wonder.
I work in the chemical industry. Recently China decided to go hard on their "Blue Sky" initiative. An effort to clean up their environment and air. They ended up shutting down a key chemical plant that caused a near immediate world-wide crisis for a key precursor material. They were the only ones who made it. We used it in my company quite a bit. It wasn't pretty. That's going to be your future as well. Someday you'll know this.
Maybe if want to deal rationally with China's impact on the global climate you could do your part and not use 99% of the things you use on a daily basis which you don't even think about coming from China.
It's gonna be a bumpy ride and you are going to whine and howl like the rest of 'em. Enjoy!
