I'd hardly call it a 'mission' to truthfully say that third world countries are struggling with much bigger issues than emissions...and that they are also the worst offenders when it comes to pollution. These countries may have some small successful projects, but as a whole, most of their citizens are burning whatever they can get their hands on to stay alive, and living in garbage piles. They're not doing higher-level thinking about large-scale green energy projects because they're still in basic human survival mode, and they're being kept there by oppressive dictators and regimes. It is a crutch of Western society, and a saccharine statement of moral superiority, that we feel we must make the world a better place for everyone. We should demand the same effort from every other country on the planet. If we keep hand-holding these countries, giving them access to cheaper infrastructure and technology while turning a blind eye to their subversion of Western society, their oppressive regimes and refusing to hold them accountable for their impact on the planet, then we will condemn them to the pitiful state they're in by assuming they can't do any better - while we prostrate ourselves doing everything we possibly can, and yet never reaching the goals we set.
