The desired narrative to me, is to avoid cooking this planet.
If you want to cook it because it's otherwise unfair to China, fine, it's your funeral too.

Do you understand that everyone around the world remembers how western countries pioneered globalization and pushed all the nasty production to third-world countries, so that they don't get their white hand dirty?
You don't get to greenwash yourselves just because stuff you consume gets produced somewhere else, got it?
But hey, I have an idea! If you insist on being no less virtuous then Mother Teresa, how about this proposal: we shut down all of the outsourced production for US and Europe. Just think of it, this would be a huge optimization: it's the smallest part of the world that consumes the most.
And people there are clearly eager to be heroes and show us how to take care of climate - let's help them finally put their money where their mouth is. It's a win-win!
Are you hearing voices? Stop assuming dichotomy and making up stuff every time someone criticizes you on practical specific things.
> western countries
> globalization
> all the nasty production
> third-world countries
> white hand
> greenwash
> stuff
> somewhere else
Practical of specific is which one of those? Your words, not mine.
