Sure. It would also be better, from a CO2 standpoint, for developing countries to stop developing.

These are obvious non-starters. It’d be rich people saying “fuck you, got mine”.

Would it really be better? It takes money to do all of things people want to do to reduce CO2. That's what developing produces.

I think a lot of people view money as a way to buy stuff. That's true but they'd be better off view money as magic. Making it creates problems but on the upside: magic.
