  • China is developed and they are the main driver of global warming. Everything you attack the EU for is out of their control and in chinas control. No one is forcing china to make goods, no one is forcing them to dump chemicals in their rivers, no one is forcing them to have zero labour laws, no one is forcing them to use the least environmentally friendly production methods. This is all well within the control of the CCP and its an active choice to not implement that policy.













  • Per captia consumption is not relevant to emissions. China chooses to manufacturer with low regulation and dirty power sources. They cant then turn around and say its the EU citizens fault for buying from them. China is poor in every single environmental stat and you’ve run down the entire list to the point where you’re trying to argue on per captia consumption. By the way half of china’s population is rural and poor the other half are very close to the EU citizens in consumption.

    The EU does produce goods and they have strong environmental regulations but you cant compete against the country that is willing to poison its own rivers to avoid the cost of proper disposal. That makes the EU far ahead of China and this is ignoring things like labour laws, healthcare, justice etc.
