Some of the reasons put forth by Pinker: * a poor country prioritizes growth while a richer one can afford to consider the environment * a richer country has access to more efficient technology * on the level of individuals, moral (or future) concerns are not in the forefront of your mind until you have your immediate needs for shelter, food etc. covered. |

Can afford to. May even consider it. But don't act.
> * a richer country has access to more efficient technology
But will not encourage that efficiency unless there's some kind of profit to be made from switching away from the less efficient incumbent.
> * on the level of individuals, moral (or future) concerns are not in the forefront of your mind until you have your immediate needs for shelter, food etc. covered.
