The standard of living will never ever be the same all over the world. There will always be rich countries and poor countries. Always have, always will. The fact of the matter is that population growth is out of control in poor parts of the world and every last one of those people want to migrate to countries where the standard of living, and therefore carbon footprint, is higher. Which is why I find it maddening that people lecture westerners to stop having children when birth rates are already below replacement, and at the same time see no problem with allowing never ending numbers of people to instantly elevate their carbon footprint via migration. It’s just not a logically consistent set of viewpoints to hold if your primary concern is climate change.
