Yes if China was like 2 billion Americans you’d have a point I guess.
if chinese were significantly different from any other people anywhere in history of the world, you might have a point. it is about as likely as kamala winning the race now.

“I have been saying for a long time that Europe must take a bigger role. We cannot count so much on US support.
yeah, we need to take more active role, or we are finished...
Any woman who says “the bear” honestly, I have to assume" has never once actually encountered a bear in the woods.
i have to assume you never were a woman... is that correct assumption, smartass?
it is also possible they have some photos from lolita express or something like that. although at this point i am not sure his voters would give a fuck...
fun fact: if the bear lets you go 1 out of million times (i pulled this number out of my ass), it is statistically safer to meet a man as long as you don't meet more than 16 of them... 😂
Google the word hyperbole, you fucking moron. Nobody can be this dumb.
Also they probably lack the leverage putin has, whatever it is.
yeah, i don't think that trying to out-idiot an idiot is valid strategy, especially if you don't aim at stupid voters.
because they experienced inflation under Biden that think it was his fault.
yeah, that's problem all around the world, people are too dumb to understand how two years of covid and ongoing war in europe affects our lives and demand that someone just takes care of it.
so in a year we will get populist pro-russian billionaire prime minister who will just start dropping more inflation money around and tells people "see? i will take care of you!" (while stealing some of these money for himself, of course)
A big portion of every country is rural
no, big portion of every country is not rural.
also note we are not talking about rural in a sense of geography. we are talking about rural in a sense of what we in europe or us would call living in a medieval conditions.
for example, there is 231 registered cars in china compared to 850 in us.
in 2000, 57% of chinese had access to clean drinking water and toilet. by 2020 that number rose to respectable 92%.
now when these people finally have access to toilet, they will want a car and maybe a roof over their head that is made out of concrete instead of bamboo.
lets see how it will affect their emissions per capita.
China is still largely a manufacturing economy
and will be for some time, before their citizens will get to western living standard, by which time their emissions will be somewhere else than they are today.
They’ve built more rail transit in recent years than the United States has even attempted.
well, united states have 1 km of railways per 1522 people, compared to chinese 8865, so it is easy to see why one of them may be in bigger rush to build more.
here is kinda interesting and unfortunate that according to table historical peek for us was 400k km of tracks in 1917, which is about 100% more than they have now, so, probably thanks to the car culture, they let lot of them rot.
Their EV market share is significantly higher.
yes, they do better here. it is the nature of the beast, if country has almost no cars and is getting richer, it is only logical that some of the new cars will be electrical, compared to country where people already have a car and often not so much disposable income to buy new car when the old one is still working, plus there is of course some inertia.
it is 38% / 23% / 9.5% market share of newly bought cars for china/eu/us.
that also means that 62% of cars sold in china is not electric. and 72% of electricity for these ev cars comes from non-renewable sources.
they are missing about 900 million cars to get to same car penetration as us. so lets wait until they get there and see what it does with their emissions 😂
Seems the only thing you learned in school is blind nationalism
of course. because why else would someone disagree with your genius? i am not an american, as you probably think, you clown.
True I should thank you for teaching me that per capita statistics are useless for comparing nations.
any single piece of statistic presented without context can be used to manipulate, as you did in this case, knowingly or not.
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.
these people living in rural areas will ultimately also want to participate in the booming economy, it is just a matter of time. so it is better to look at trends rather than some number fixed in time. and how does the trend look like?
You should go public with this information
oh don't worry, it is public information, they teach it in schools.

No. But this your comment makes you sound stupid.
On top of being stupid, you obviously still don't understand what hyperbole is.
