Strange how people can be so oblivious as to the role they play in the consumption of energy and materials...

I've recently started to believe that the only way climate change is going to end is if a very, very large percentage of the human population dies off very quickly... like... 70-80% or more. One billion people still seems like too many.

India could produce 8x more CO2 and still have less per capita than the US

The number of humans is not the main factor in pollution, it's what those humans are consuming that is important.

Well, the average indian household probably doesn't own 2 or 3 cars, doesn't eat meat everyday and doesn't have a huge house
