we're also one of the most sparsely populated countries in the world, which is why we also have a huge carbon sink in our forests and marshes. evidently it's a natural advantage we did nothing to get that no one else can have, short of slaughtering most of the world's population.
I don’t buy this, having forests and a small population are great, but taking credit for it is dumb. That’s not a design, it’s just the reality of being a young country in the far north. That doesn’t mean we can polute more, and it doesn’t help that damning per capital stat. We’re not the worst offender in the world, sure, but that’s not the goal.
