Climate protection cannot be carried out individually or nationally. CO2 has no flag. You either succeed or you don’t – but success happens only through the cooperation of all the big players. Or then just not. "Each to their own" is synonymous with "then just not." You have to face a death.

You cannot conduct climate protection individually or nationally. CO2 has no flag. You either succeed or you don’t – but success happens only through the cooperation of all the major players.

And precisely that is what other countries perceive as the negative consequence of environmental protection.
