    Yes, exactly, the developed world should aid the developing world as much as possible in providing them clean technologies.

    We are rich enough. We can afford that. And we all benefit in the end (because, after all, a lot of our supplies originate from developing countries).

      Yep just raise everyone’s taxes in the EU and US/Canada and give it to everybody else, sounds awesome.

            I already do, but that’s completely missing the point.

            Donating isn’t enough to solve the issue, and, moreover, it puts all of the onus on the good-willed people, which is just super convenient for you, isn’t it?

            No, everyone needs to contribute to a better future. Such economic individualism is what caused these problems in the first place.

              I give more to charity in both time and money than you ever have, I guarantee it. Take your assumptions and pound sand.
