Emissions are dropping like a rock though in the US and EU.
- londons_explore 3y agoMaybe so, but worldwide they're still going up. If the whole world wants a quality of life equal to the US, emissions will go up a lot. A US person uses 13 MWh of electricity per year, while the world average is 3 MWh. The difference is even bigger when comparing other energy sources.
