Imagine a career pastry baker going to a union electricians meeting and trying to vote in the proceedings...ridiculous right? Well that's basically what the aforementioned amounts to. As Chris Hansen says:

Yep, world politics is nothing like that. Good analogy though for explaining...something.

@GeniUs you and I both know that they are not nearly as interested in what Djibouti is up to. World politics my ass they have an America fetish.
GeniUs · 56-60, M
Yeah Djibouti isn't about to screw with the planet...

@GeniUs neither is the us. Of all the world powers we are one of the fastest moving towards sustainable energy and climate sensitive policies.

[i]The[/i] fastest? Certainly not. But [i]one[/i] of the fastest surely.

I think China and Venezuela are the ones you're looking for

I wasn't specifically referring to climate change but since you bring it up, by pointing out you aren't the worst does not absolve you of your contribution. I always like a little back up when making a point:

@GeniUs the goal wasnt to "absolve" our contribution. The point was to demonstrate that we are not worthy of all this foreign scrutiny and nitpicky noseyness.

Go bother Qatar.

Also that list didnt mention which of those countries is making the biggest strides towards improvement.

I'm an American electrician and I see/actually participate in a whole lot of solar panels and LED installations/conversions.
