Right, Wharfie, so we can't say anything about China's emissions because we're not Chinese, but the autistic 16-year-old from Sweden can nag us about our emissions because she's an "Earthling." Meanwhile, America's emissions are going down and China's emissions are going up. But please, keep telling us Americans that we're "too rich."
