Regardless of whether historically it came from those places, currently emissions are largely from: China, USA, India, Russia and Japan. China alone is **30%** of global emissions.

I come from the U.K., and it’s all well and good for us to switch to greener ways, but if it’s in the name of the climate, we’re not doing much. If all emissions of the U.K. stopped that would stop a whole 1% of emissions, so not much. I don’t see much point in clambering for countries like mine to cause great economic and social stress to our society when somewhere like China still pollutes so much. The switch should be natural and gradual, not rushed and forced.

Scotland is running 100% on wind power. England has massive hydro stations, offshore wind farms, et cetera. The UK has abundant renewable energy sources, the switch is a matter of political will. And at least we will know we've done our part, and it's not hypocrisy anymore to get others to follow suit.
