Asia and Africa are just following what Europe and America did years ago.
- mooseburger 7y agoYeah, and their only choice is to stop, because the US and Europe alone cannot solve global warming.
- cf498 7y agoIts not a realistic choice for them. Large parts of developing nations still have absolute poverty problems with their population dying due to the lack of basic necessities. Having them remain on that level of poverty, or worse, reducing their standard of living further is not an option. Its up to the West to solve global warming globally and that includes providing at least India and Africa, but likely every developing Nation, including China, with climate neutral ways of development equivalent to the potential these region shouldnt take in the form of polluting development options. This is going to be very expensive and not something governments alone can stem. I dont see how this could be achievable in our current market structures.
