It also means that poor countries are better on these graphs. Does that mean we should encourage them to stay poor?
There are three basic camps among people who study foreign aid, if the goal is to lift countries out of poverty: 1) it doesn't work, and creates dependency instead. 2) it doesn't work, but that's because we need more of it. 3) it doesn't work, but if we try more ways of delivering aid, we can find something that does.
Tech is becoming available - not nearly proven to be sufficient, but progressing.
As I said, it requires proof, because there is no country that has progressed from poverty to prosperity without emissions.
