Noah posted a fascinating article earlier today about how China emits more carbon than US and Europe combined. U.S. military is relatively insignificant.

This is just a way for you to shield yourself from the fact that you emit more C02 than basically anyone else on earth
-
Qatar emits more than twice as much, it's on them to solve climate change /sarcasm
-
It's really cute how you keep deflecting to Qatar instead of dealing with how absurdly high American emissions are by either standard
-
Your bad argument about per capita emissions, if carried through to its logical conclusion, would conclude that Qatar is the biggest problem, which is patently dumb. But once you admit total emissions are the problem, you realize China is the biggest problem, game over.

The amazing thing about Neoliberism is how capital has free movement and everything is interconnected until someone has to deal with externalities at which point a geologic scale crisis driven by the industrialization of the West has to be solved by China alone

Not China alone. But China is absolutely indispensable. If we reduce emissions and they do not, we die. Simple as that.
