Anyway Squealer, here's the last thing I will say on the subject. If you don't want to do anything, then don't. If it's too hard for you, it's too hard for you. Your habits and way of thinking may cost you more in the long run though.
If the West sticks to climate controls it will give the 3rd world a massive advantage and they will ramp up production. The consumer is more interested in buying cheap goods than saving Western economies and the Earth. China and the 3rd world would wake up immediately to the threat of climate change if consumers stopped buying their products for a while. Where they can. But we love the disposable products we gouge ourselves with. So the climate and jobs suffer.
