Buddy is a Western Patriot fighting the good fight. Go get em tiger, your emotional zeal is steadfast in the face of data and logic. America is truly amazing and the best at climate. You caught a vuvuzelan spy working for Xi.
How is it appropriate to make comparisons between nations without normalizing for the population?
when you have big part of country that is rural and don’t participate in generating the emissions and profiting from them, then including them in the total count to artificially decrease final per capita number is just manipulation.
but my point here was you carefully selected one graph and presented it without context to support incorrect conclusion. but you know that, right?
Frankly, accusing me of manipulation makes me no longer care what you have to say. You can fuck off.
so you have no rebuttal to graphs i showed you, so you are suddenly not talking to me. that’s understandable, whatever exit strategy works for you, clown…
You’re here being an asshole with a chip on your shoulder so I’m giving you the same energy. Comparing the total output of a 2 billion pop nation with a nation 20% of that size is a pretty dumb way to compare statistics and the progress of a country’s green transition.
I can’t give you a stats curriculum on lemmy when you are also being a huge dick.

How did treating all dissent as Russian/Chinese bots/trolls work out this election? Not very well. Because they mostly don’t exist.
China’s per capita carbon emissions are lower than the United States and Canada https://www.worldometers.info/co2-emissions/co2-emissions-per-capita/
oh, cool. manipulation by carefully selecting statistisc that will support my theory 😂

with that out of hand, lets look at few others, shall we?
