How would you anticipate those per capita movements as those countries continue to gain wealth?

China accounts for ~30% of global emissions currently. You can twist per capita all you want. This issue only gets solved technologically

China and India produce miniscule greenhouse gas emission per capita compared to the USA or EU. China especially has implemented far more green initiatives than the USA.

China, India, and Indonesia (nearly 40% of the world’s population combined) are parties to the Paris Convention. It’s the US that are in the process of withdrawing.
