The only socialist countries cutting their carbon emissions are Columbia and Venezuela.
That's only because their economics are in free fall from a failed socialist agenda.
All your hard core socialist countries and countries running socialism-lite are all increasing emission.
Once you fall under socialism or communism, then all of a sudden carbon emissions don't matter, automatic free pass to burn as much coal as you want.

- Columbia is a republic with the president and congress elected every 4 years.
- Their economy is not in freefall, it has been steady growing for decades
- It is also a very nice place to visit. I enjoyed my time to Bogota and Medellin

The 1 to 2 percent gdp reminds me of Obamas " it's technically not a recession" economy.

I don't like when media (formerly news outlets) takes unflattering photos and posts them for the public to view. Don't like it with Greta; don't like it with Trump.
BTW, has a "news" organization anywhere ever posted a normal or even flattering photo of Trump? Seems like they only want to show scowl faces or his mouth open.
I do like the recent trend of throwing "how dare you" audio into podcasts. Now that's funny.

Nuclear con-fusion?
Is the down-side of having a high-speed rail system connecting quarantined cities offtopic?
