It is certainly true that the industrialised countries are the main culprits in all this.
Developing countries have never really had a chance in the last 100 years.
And it's certainly true that all the crap that industrialised countries are doing right now is making everything worse.
Bigger, faster, better. The main thing is, that we don't want to give up any power and can expand your prosperity.
For me, that's the wrong way.
And it will get even worse, if we buy certificates just so that we don't have to change anything ourselves.
But it cannot be the way to let developing countries make the same mistakes.
Germany already has no more natural forests. Brazil is well on its way to doing so.
I can understand that they want the same as Europe. And it is their right. We in Europe should change a lot. Not the developing countries.
But people should be smart and learn from mistakes.
If we do it the way you suggest, everything will get worse and we won't have learned anything.
