Politicians keep making it more difficult and more expensive for businesses to operate here in the states and companies will continue to move operations to China where they don't have to deal with such.

We'll then ignore the fact that those products are now being produced in a place with less environmental regulations and require shipping. All the while many of those companies virtue signal how green the US is or can be.

Climate people, much like Feminists dealing with the middle east, will just avoid even talking about it.

Don’t worry. We will soon be paying higher taxes to offset this issue.

But Brazil has the most cattle in the world. I thought cattle were the big problem for the statists.

Its been touched on but the most relevant is pollution/gdp its what the whole paris accord was about.

China is polluting a lot for their output.

course the paris accord formula divides growth of gdp into growth of pollution so they can continue to increase pollution as long as they increase gdp and they are golden.

Course the US has been doing this for a decade and we are still bad guys.

We’re second in total, and emit a lot more than anyone per capita.
Both a function of our incredible economy that is diversified across all sectors (manufacturing included) and a low population in the denominator.

CO2 doesn't hit the atmosphere on a per capita basis so that term has no business mentioned in any related context. We're also at the same level of CO2 output as we were in the 90s - we and the rest of the developed world are doing our part.

Unfortunately Greta won't go to China though so we are all going to die :(

So you just proved that it’s not the most relevant Way of looking at. And where does it say in the PCA that that is the formula? That was in China’s commitment, but most countries committed to a reduction in total emissions.

This is all that matters. China is not playing the same game as the rest of us and we are allowing them to do it.
