<< The more accurate way to look at pollution is through pollution emitted in relation to economic activity. China emits half as much pollution as the US in total, yet per unit GDP emits 7 times as much as the US. China's GDP is only 1 trillion dollars. >> I note that you are ignoring the per capita pollution which is about 1/8th of ours. China has 4 times as many people, yet produces half of our pollution, and you see nothing wrong with that picture? They are basically on a coal system just as when we were when we were a developing nation, yet they are willing to work towards reduced emissions, unlike our poor example of a president. Del
