It's pretty revealing that almost everyone in the world would far prefer to live in the red countries.
- rch 10y agoRed countries like Libya?
- SamBam 10y agoEveryone would probably also prefer to spend the weekend with their high-rolling free-spending uncle, who will be bankrupt in a year but will guarantee you a great time in Las Vegas, than with their budget-conscious boring aunt who will reliably save money away for all the kids' college educations.
- randyrand 10y agoAlmost a good analogy, except your uncle has enough money to last your entire life and more. That changes how people would decide.
- SamBam 10y agoThere's no science that suggests that the first world can continue to use up resources and emit carbon at their current rates without eventually both destroying the environment and depleting the resources. Sure, things could change, like the uncle could suddenly learn to be responsible.
- agentgt 10y agoSeriously? Did you not see Canada, Argentina, New Zealand, Australia. For me it was relatively balanced and mainly the US really throws it off. There are also some red countries that I would seriously not want to live in.
- eudox 10y agoThe only context where Argentina can be in the same sentence as Australia is in a list of countries in the Southern Hemisphere, or countries whose names start with an 'A'.
- schoen 10y agoI would also have mentioned Uruguay, Finland, and Norway as developed countries that are pretty green on the map. Edit: although it looks like a way to be a green developed country by this ranking is largely to have extremely uneven population density.
