    Sure it’s always the same discussion with historical pollution. It’s cool, nice point, whatever, but we’ve got to stop warming NOW, not let every country in the world catch up to a couple of centuries of pollution accumulated by developed nations.

      Yelling at other nations who were simply trying to catch up with the standard the US set is pointless.
