      Nah, most countries these days are defined by arbitrary lines drawn by colonisers. And it still doesn’t matter. 1.3 billion >>>>> 27.4 million. 1.3 billion people will always have much more total emissions because it is 47 times more number of people. In fact, for India to maintain same lifestyle as any Australian, they will need to far more amounts of energy consumption and hence emissions than currently and they have far far less of it. May be we should split up Australia and give that land so they get equal amount of land resources allocated.

      Now, also show me which countries are building largest amount of solar energy farms, nuclear energy, wind and so on and tell me why are others not doing it. And then also show me the commutative emissions of the arbitrarily defined countries over last 100 years. Development is not a privilege of some specific people.
