@@SC-mf1gc I said per capita. China and India are infamous for their large pollution output, as a country, primarily because they also have nearly 40% of the world population, whereas the US has a carbon footprint only second to China despite having less than a quarter of the population. You can blame other countries all you want, but if your solution for the environment is for poor people to stay poor, that's pretty darn hypocritical and unsolvable.
