Humans do. No human is going to accept emitting less CO2 just because they live in a populous country, if other humans are allowed to emit more per person just because they live in a less populated country.
How else do it aggregate to the sum of all on earth? Climate change do not care about borders
Guess what? If you're driving a massive SUV and heating your home every winter, I'm not going to listen to you telling me I have to oil the bearings on my bike to prevent friction heating.

Take the beam out of your eye and maybe I'll listen.
