None of this stuff matters!!

The only steps that could even potentially alter the trajectory even a little bit would be massive and immediate changes in major third world countries, mostly China and India. Essentially the termination of industry almost entirely in those countries. That’s it.

Unfortunately the climate change community overlaps quite a bit with the refusal to hold poor or brown folks accountable community. So round and round we go. Much more fashionable to castigate McMansions and SUVs (a rapidly growing proportion of which are carbon neutral…). [/quote]

Wrong. The USA is only second to China in terms of total carbon output. Not even India produces more than is even when they have many times the population numbers.

I also would love to hear how you cam blame China and India when adjusting for population. Per capita is the only number that lends any true insight towards which countries are the largest producers of carbon.

Maybe you actually [i]are[/i] just a little bit racist for posting the nonsense above.[/quote]
