China has only been allowed to grow as much as it has because it has played nice with American capitalism, so can you even imagine the global economic and geopolitical melt down that would cause? If China started forcing all polluting industries to either clean up or get out of their country it would cause the greatest economic depression in history, start a new Cold War, and probably lead to World War 3.
More likely it would just get negotiated that costs needed to be less per emissions and then they had x years to make efforts to prove they are mitigating as much as possible. And the same old shit would carry on as it is right now.
(Not saying this is what I want, just that this is how it seems)
Same bullshit as always. No one will end up paying an amount that will “re-pay” sufficiently. Instead it just goes back to hoping tech advancments move us to cleaner energy quickly.
(Aka. If they were going to pay x per footprint, they instead would pay x/y)

What on Earth does “costs needed to be less per emissions” mean?

… okay so x/y is the same as x per y
meters per second = meters / seconds

You’re right, I was clearly tired. I deleted the post saying divide instead of multiply haha. I need to catch up on some sleep.
