I miss the days when the concern was focused on more generic pollution like companies dumping industrial waste in the rivers and such. Now no one gives a shit about rivers of plastic and chemicals freely flowing all over Asia, but somehow the first world where that's mostly been heavily punished is the biggest worstest threat to the environment.
Not quite. They have a smaller number because their economy is smaller. But population is not the relevant measurement there. It should be divided by GDP - because what you want is the greatest amount of production for the lowest amount of pollution. If you live in caves, you're not going to cause much pollution either.
The environmental cultists also never gave much of a damn about the extreme pollution taking place in the USSR. Funny how all these cultists never give a damn about what they purport to stand for, unless it's something they can burn down the west for.

MUH PER CAPITA
never mind the fact that of course they're going to have a smaller number when you divide by 2 billion
