Though I agree with you that India and China should do more but they still are way behind in carbon use per person. And are investing heavily on renewables so hopefully will never use as much per person as US or Europe are now.

But this is the reason I don't believe we will be able to stop or even slow down climate change much as major power consumption growth is going to be outside US and Europe. So even if they are able to bring down carbon use the growth of carbon use in other places like Africa and Asia will offset it. The world is fucked and I am very pessimistic about it. The world population is expected to go over 10billion in the future but the world can't sustain the 8billion we have now.
