It would be great to be a leader in environmental concern but we've got to take care of ourselves first and honestly, if none of China, India, Russia or the US do a damned thing about reducing their emissions then nothing we do matters.
So why are we taking one on the chin for the team when none of the major players seems to care?

Oh this is simple, because we (Canada) are the easy target for environmental groups and the people that are so vested in climate change.
If they did the protesting that they do in Canada or fund groups like they do in Canada, not only would the Chinese not give a crap, but they would probably increase their carbon signatures with all of the firing squads.
The saudi's at least have a clean method of execution, beheadings are carbon free.
America would make a pretty speech about change and keep on moving on.
I could drop carbon emissions in one foul swoop. No more gatherings like Paris. Make them do it by phone.
