    Well, one way they ignore it is by listening to everyone saying that it will disproportionately affect the most vulnerable in the world. In their minds this translates to “oh whew at least I’m safe from the worst.”

    As true as this inequity is, I wonder if maybe we should stop talking about it, or at least acknowledge that it isn’t a motivating point for westerners with wasteful lifestyles. In fact the opposite.
