This is such an incredibly arrogant argument.

So that means that my small country of 10 million people is completely free to burn diesel and gasoline and coal as it wishes, but anyone living in China must be severely restricted to only use renewables just because they happen to live in a country with a large population, despite the fact that who put all the current carbon in the atmosphere which is causing the crisis were the small European countries like my own, over more than a century, together with the big brother the USA and its oil thirsty economies? Even today we're still the largest emitters, but feel arrogant enough to tell developing countries they must contribute as much as we do to fix our own freaking mess?! This dumb ass view of the world needs to stop.

Correct. Green logic is unfair. In order to "prevent the climate crisis" you have to make sure the people of India and China do not reach the same standard of living as those in the West, you have to keep them in the mud. And Belgium can have all the smokestacks it wants. It doesn't matter.
