For our part..we don't actually "need the oil". Tons of developing countries do..but we're not them. We just like it, it makes things easier for us.
China, for example..major polluter...but it's trying to become us, or maybe even a better version of us. The most direct path to that goal is to burn x amount of fossil fuels...like we did. Now....that, is an inconvenient truth.
Will we survive .yes
Will there be widespread destruction and suffering. yup
Is it worth it nope were seriously tempting fate .
And the idea America should act reckless because China is rather silly . I don't know how anyone can defend that .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
