If you want to push India and China to go faster, lobby your politicians to tariff high carbon emitters and subsidize developing countries' rollout of clean energy. To be clear it has to be both. That's all you can do about emissions outside your country.
That's all we can do, is it?
I don't think so!
It is through deliberate Western actions and inactions that we have allowed our own production capacity to be replaced by production capacity in China, a country that cares little for human rights, workers rights and environmental standards.
It is through decisive economic action, like America's tarrifs that we can quickly bring production capacity back to the West. This is already happening at pace, with huge inward investment in American factories, which will use cutting edge automation and will create many, many jobs.
Not only is this a vital geo political win (consider China's aggression towards Hong Kong, Taiwan and its neighbours in the South China Sea), but it is also a win for the working classes in the West, who have seen their opportunities torn up by globalist leaders in the West.
