    UN Chief Blames Rich For Global Warming…

    You said per capita is irrelevant and all it meant was that we have more industry. We don't have more industry unless you consider per capita normalization...which isn't really a poor metric at all. Normalization allows for comparisons of dissimilar scales. Economists use these metrics all the...
