Yet when discussing this online, many Indians are adamant that they don't have to espouse green tech because "the West reaped the benefits of fossil fuels before, it's only fair others got their turn".
Some of us are idiots. What we should be saying is that the West helps developing nations to achieve the benefits they had in past with modern green technology.
The west don't give two shits, they're still lobbying against green tech in their own countries.
Well those idiots can give that green tech to us if they don't want it.
It’s never been more affordable or efficient. Lots of availability too. Just. Waiting for money.
I wish. But it won't happen, so...

Why would they want to help turn their country into a sauna when they don't have to?
