That's because you can't expect every country to submit. Russia will not, China will not.

The same way the US would not stop bombing the middle east and Africa or overthrow legitimate governments in Latin America if them, China and Russia decided to sanction America.

Exactly -- and the trick is finding a viable way to get even large countries to hold themselves to account for their share in ecological catastrophes.

No worries. It worked so well in Vietnam, Iraq, Grenada, etc. etc.
