dude you’re such a huge asshole. USA! USA! USA! keep building multi-decade lifespan LNG shipping infrastructure for your “bridge fuel” and suppressing cheap green energy.
Keep electing leaders paid for by fossil fuel companies
True I should thank you for teaching me that per capita statistics are useless for comparing nations.
any single piece of statistic presented without context can be used to manipulate, as you did in this case, knowingly or not.
when you have big part of country that is rural and don’t participate in generating the emissions and profiting from them, then including them in the total count to artificially decrease final per capita number is just manipulation.
these people living in rural areas will ultimately also want to participate in the booming economy, it is just a matter of time. so it is better to look at trends rather than some number fixed in time. and how does the trend look like?
You should go public with this information
oh don’t worry, it is public information, they teach it in schools.
also note we are not talking about rural in a sense of geography. we are talking about rural in a sense of what we in europe or us would call living in a medieval conditions.
for example, there is 231 registered cars in china compared to 850 in us.
now when these people finally have access to toilet, they will want a car and maybe a roof over their head that is made out of concrete instead of bamboo.
lets see how it will affect their emissions per capita.
China is still largely a manufacturing economy
and will be for some time, before their citizens will get to western living standard, by which time their emissions will be somewhere else than they are today.
They’ve built more rail transit in recent years than the United States has even attempted.
well, united states have 1 km of railways per 1522 people, compared to chinese 8865, so it is easy to see why one of them may be in bigger rush to build more.
here is kinda interesting and unfortunate that according to table historical peek for us was 400k km of tracks in 1917, which is about 100% more than they have now, so, probably thanks to the car culture, they let lot of them rot.
Their EV market share is significantly higher.
yes, they do better here. it is the nature of the beast, if country has almost no cars and is getting richer, it is only logical that some of the new cars will be electrical, compared to country where people already have a car and often not so much disposable income to buy new car when the old one is still working, plus there is of course some inertia.
it is 38% / 23% / 9.5% market share of newly bought cars for china/eu/us.
they are missing about 900 million cars to get to same car penetration as us. so lets wait until they get there and see what it does with their emissions 😂
Seems the only thing you learned in school is blind nationalism
of course. because why else would someone disagree with your genius? i am not an american, as you probably think, you clown.
Your thesis is that eventually Chinese will live extravagant lifestyles like the US and all own similar amounts of gas cars per household because that’s how the US developed.
Never mind that China is actively electrifying and building incredible amounts of public transit so it’s more likely their economy will scale in a green way as people live more urban lifestyles, closer to what you’d see in Europe and even beyond that due to electric rail and population density.
Yes if China was like 2 billion Americans you’d have a point I guess.

USA! USA! #1
the other party is such an asshole! they presented facts! how dare they?!?!?!?
you should take deep breath, this mental breakdown can’t be good for you.

A big portion of every country is rural, you’re not making the case you think you’re making.
Let’s look at other differences: China is still largely a manufacturing economy whereas the United States is a service economy.
They’ve built more rail transit in recent years than the United States has even attempted.
Their EV market share is significantly higher.
Seems the only thing you learned in school is blind nationalism
no, big portion of every country is not rural.
also note we are not talking about rural in a sense of geography. we are talking about rural in a sense of what we in europe or us would call living in a medieval conditions.
for example, there is 231 registered cars in china compared to 850 in us.
in 2000, 57% of chinese had access to clean drinking water and toilet. by 2020 that number rose to respectable 92%.
now when these people finally have access to toilet, they will want a car and maybe a roof over their head that is made out of concrete instead of bamboo.
lets see how it will affect their emissions per capita.
and will be for some time, before their citizens will get to western living standard, by which time their emissions will be somewhere else than they are today.

it is 38% / 23% / 9.5% market share of newly bought cars for china/eu/us.
that also means that 62% of cars sold in china is not electric. and 72% of electricity for these ev cars comes from non-renewable sources.
they are missing about 900 million cars to get to same car penetration as us. so lets wait until they get there and see what it does with their emissions 😂
