    Yeah what a shame that the UK still allows some form of protest and does not just shoot them like the Chinese. /s

    Seriously the UK is the fithed largest cumulative emitter and even though that is over litterally centuries even recent emissions are well above the global average. Combine that with a government, which allows even more oil and gas drilling, while even opening up a new coal mine. The UK is doing better then quite a few other countries, but it is not exactly great.

      The UK is doing great per capita, for an industrialized country. Even if they have histpry, theyve since corrected.

        Not good enough. Comparisons don’t mean shit. This crisis can not be argued with.

        If every country did as great as the UK per capita we would be completely and irrevocably fucked.

        The UK offshored most of its emissions. So as soon as you adjust for that it is about at the level of the EU on a per capita bases. However the EU has much more laws passed to actually reduce emissions in the coming years.
