The realization that in order to actually stop pollution, the us government would need to wage war on china



The US's green house emissions per capita are twice as big as China's[1]. Considering China's population is about 4 times bigger it puts the absolute pollution at about 1:2. Chinese percent of renewables is 25% compared to the US's 15%[2]. What exactly do you want from China? I'm not even gonna address the war idea...
