It's sad to see how multiple rich countries are blaming climate change on others, even when rich countries are the ones who are causing the majority of emissions.
Giving compensation to poor countries suffering from climate change is important, but hopefully rich countries will not stop doing emission reduction only because they can think they can only pay for the damages. As ultimately, the worst damages can't be fixed with money. They could be prevented in advance.
