and, "b-b-but what's the point of reducing carbon emissions in Canada when China generates so much???" For one thing, China actually is dealing with its carbon emissions. China has also repeatedly recognized the threat of climate change and acknowledged the role of CO2 emissions and has committed to reduction targets. It's worth pointing out, though, that according to that EU report, our per capita carbon emissions are double that of China's. I see a moral obligation to address carbon emissions just in that pair of numbers alone.
