What efforts the U.S. puts into “net zero” will be made up by China in their increasing output of CO2. Are we willing to spank ourselves for the bad actions of another?
By the way, what is the annual limit of the billions of metric tons of CO2 needed to reach net-zero? Parts per million? To “turn back the clock” on climate change, we would need to eliminate today’s emissions (humans emit annually 35 billion tons) plus an enormous backlog. To reach 350 parts per million—the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide in 1988—humans would need to eliminate more than 500 billion tons in emissions. The elites who won’t do the math, will end up shooting humans to get what they want.
I feel you are right. We are simply moving the beef industry to China by doing this.
