Like I said, environmental damage does not exist per capita. Or are you going to try and argue that Canada's "2-3 times per capita" of pollutants dumped into the environment is causing more real damage than China's far greater total pollutants is?

I meant to say that Canada has no moral standing when it comes to pushing China into cleaning up it's act. It's like if we were to criticize other countries for suppressing scientific advancement when the Harper government threatens the jobs of any government scientists who publish their work without authorization.
