So, where is the logic in that?

The logic goes back to the very first of the global meetings to deal with climate change. That was that the developing world said, listen first world, you have been causing this problems for going on 200 years and now you expect us to cut emissions at the same rate as you? It appears to us that we have a little catch up so that our people don't continue to remain in poverty like colonialism has done to us over those 200 or more years.

Everyone agreed. It was the only way to move things forward.

On the positive side renewable energy is growing at a much greater speed in China than any of the first world nations with a few exceptions like Germany and some countries in Scandinavia. Scandinavia chooses to export their oils to other countries to burn while they take the profits and put them into renewable.

Everyone is playing the game as best they can. They are juggling numbers and spinning narratives.

Pointing fingers is not going to heal the planet. I have not had a car on the road for about 8 years now. My transport is bicycle and public. My diet went to an aspiring vegan one from a meat eater about the same time. It was for environmental reasons yet there were some surprising health spin offs.

We all must do what must be done. No leader can do it for us. No broadcaster should be trusted for anything. There is not Australia and China when it comes to the planet's health. There is only we humans. Be you Chinese or Australian we all breath the same air.
