Yes, but the environment doesn't care about at per capita stats - only the total CO2 output. China output is growing, West is not.

- Pxtl 10y agoDo Chinese people have different biological needs? Do they require less food, less transportation, less shelter? Then why the hell should they have less carbon than you or I? Pick a per-capita number and stick to it. Anything else is hypocrisy.
- gedy 10y agoYes, but - those "per capita" numbers for China are not for all the Chinese populace's needs - it's for huge factories, etc that benefit relatively fewer and are a growing menace to the climate.
