China's emissions have now caused more global warming than EU – Carbon Brief
- LargoLasskhyfv 2y agoWell. They are producing almost anything which is consumed by the EU, so what exactly is the point of pointing fingers at them for doing the dirty work?
- ls612 2y agoBecause only 15% of China’s GDP is net exports so this argument is false. It only changes the break even point by a few years to adjust for exports and imports.
- loongloong 2y agoThere are many ways to slice this, for example emissions per capita (which can also be current vs historical cumulative, etc.), all of which should be studied since this is a complex problem.
- ls612 2y agoThe planet doesn’t care about per capita anything, only the total quantity.
- metalman 2y agoThis has nothing to do with Co2 The "eu" is a purely fictious construct....eh!a massivly documented fiction, which was created to stave off the inevitable beurocratic apocolypse brought on by mindboggling redunancy. They desperatly need an adversary to redirect attention from there essential uselessness, or worse yet ,that they are a societal burden that only hurts citizens. What we are witnessing is a last ditch effort to export there contradictions, secretly praying for a miracle of technology or just luck, to drag the whole uggly edifice forward one bit more.
