Chris LewerKeymasterAccording to data from the Global Carbon Project, China, USA, India, Russia and Japan are the top five CO2 producing countries. But should other nations also bear responsibility for this?
China’s manufacturing industry, for example, is one of the primary causes of CO2 emissions. Yet most of China’s manufactured goods are for export to other countries demanding cheaper products for growing populations.

FreebirdParticipantApart from possibly small island nations, all countries must collectively bear responsibility for CO2 emissions. We can’t just point the finger at the top 5 and say that they are to blame. Where were your car and television manufactured? Add to that the CO2 emissions from international shipping.

DayWalkerParticipantI’m sure shipping must be responsible for significant CO2 emissions. Look how much is shipped around the globe by air, sea and land. Most of the fresh fruit I look at in the supermarket comes from overseas, so it all requires international shipping. How much would we reduce emissions by if we bought more from local producers?

GuestVia een mail van een oude bekende uit Kortrijk kwam ik op dit platform terecht voor mijn wekelijkse potje poker. Ik zocht een omgeving die eerlijk aanvoelde en waar ik rustig mijn strategie kon bepalen. De rocky spin bonus hielp me om de eerste verliesrondes goed te overleven. Ineens viel er een grote pot mijn kant op. Ik heb mijn verliezen terug en ben zeer tevreden over de snelheid van het systeem. Het is een degelijke plek voor iedereen die van spanning houdt.

Planet WatcherParticipantThis is very true. China manufactures for much of the world, because it can do so cheaply. Manufacturing is one of the primary causes of CO2 emissions, but there are really two issues here. Firstly there are too many of us. Secondly, most us live our lives constantly upgrading old for new. We consume too much. This both increases waste (the old goes in the trash) and necessitates more manufacturing (we want new to replace the old that we’ve discarded).
