In your opinion what should pollution be measured as a function of? If you choose not to measure it per capita, then every country, no matter how large or small will be measured equally, setting up perverse incentives for smaller countries to have pollution heavy environments.
- mysterydip 3y agowhat about per square km? Or per GDP, since emissions are loosely tied to production, we could gauge efficiency?

- icantbebothered 3y ago> what should pollution be measured as a function of? Consumption? China is a huge emitter, but a large percentage of that comes from making products destined for America and Europe. IMO the emissions for those products should be assigned to the country that is purchasing them.
