If you think China is going to cooperate because we're acting like a leader


you're kidding yourself. The scientists have given us the bogey for averting climate disaster. We don't get there with current technology without a Thanos type solution. And we definitely don't get there without China, India, Russia, etc going all in with us. That is not going to happen, so let's try to find other solutions that at least have the potential to solve the problem. Pursuing feel good measures that damage our economy and quality of life and ultimately lead to the same Climate catastrophe feels pointless to me.

And FWIW, we're not doing nothing, our CO2 emissions per capita and per GDP $ have trended down steadily over the last 20 years.
