I'd actually argue that cr4p government in most of the developing world is a cause of such problems - not a carbon debt The cause of what problems? Deforestation. Well, the rest of the world managed to deforest itself pretty well. Telling the developing world not to cut down its trees so as to absorb carbon being emitted by the West, seems, a bit rich if you ask me. As for cr*p governments – you certainly get a lot more tin-pot dictatorships in the non-developed world, but whether that’s a cause or an effect varies. You do get bad government all over the place though. Cheers Ken
