This is the best advice I’ve seen on small talk, and how to get a flow going. Thank you

The problem is these numbers are based on the country of origin of emissions and don’t take into account the demand/consumption that is driving those emissions. China is a huge exporter and the US is a major importer of Chinese goods. US consumption is driving a lot of China’s emissions

By not being a manufacturing economy, we’re able to offset the appearance of our emissions when the data is tracked this way
