You can't argue with "the truth" here. Global warming has been a mainstream scarecrow for decades now.
In truth, it was just a way to slow down the growth of rival industrialized countries, or countries that are yet to industrialize. By promoting expensive, inefficient "clean" energy sources (but not nuclear!), they are stunting the growth of developing nations.

Also they have much more choice in choosing their technology stack - they can if they want invest in wind and solar and nuclear. First world has lots of money already sunk in old style generation, and needs to replace it - at much higher levels of consumption.
