China and India pollute way more than we do... never like per capita statistics they don't show the real story.
Keep blaming everything on the Iraq war instead of a shitty government as a whole.
actually per capita stats are much more useful since it shows just how truly wasteful you're society is. Per person the US pollutes I think it was 6 times more the china and india. I can't remember the exact numbers but it was something like 5% of the population contributing 50% of the global pollution. I think per capita stats are indicative of the attitude towards the environment of a society as a whole. China and India should be waaaaaay ahead of you guys in terms of pollution just considering their enormity but they're not because the US is the most wasteful country in the world, by far.
I do agree with you on you guys' having a shitty government although ours isn't much better.
No, China and India don't pollute as much because they are poor historically. Now that they are coming into an age of wealth they will begin to polute more. I'm less worried about the enviroment more worried about how we are going to feed all these people in China and India not to mention America, Mexico, Brazil.....
