      Are you referring to China? Because that would be an exceptionally bad example.

        Yep, taking one of the most populous countries on the planet and judging it by total emissions is ludicrous, plus the PRC is drastically improving solar panel production and infrastructure. If the world was set to the same environmental standards as the PRC we wouldn’t have nearly as much worry.

          Honestly I think China will be the only country actually reaching their carbon emissionsl targets set in Paris. All these preaching democratic nations are failing theirs year after year.

            Yep, hopefully their solar production forces mass adoption among other nations and we can get back on track to mitigate environmental damage.
