> The west bootstrapped modern civilization Bootstrapped? You mean raped, pillaged, exterminated and polluted. > Other countries dont need to because cleaner technology is available now. 'Available'? You mean poor countries have to pay rich western countries exorbitant prices to use 'clean' technology when they could simply use abundant and cheap coal, oil, etc to develop? You act like we are trying to give underdeveloped countries free technology.
No what developing regions like india, asean, africa, etc should be doing is pumping out coal, nuclear, gas, oil, fossil fuel plants and improving the lives of their people. |

Instead of assuming what I mean, why not ask for clarification? no, I mean technology and science largely developed by the west.
> You act like we are trying to give underdeveloped countries free technology
Actually yes, rich countries give less devloped countries free technology. Billions and billions worth.
But more importantly, Information is free.
There are many less devloped countries advancing at an incredible rate, more cleanly, because of technlology and information avaialble in the modern era.
You seem a bit outraged. History isnt clean and nobody claimed it was. Ghengis Khan killed 10% of the planets population and drove the world into a global Dark Ages.
Maybe go outside and smell the roses.
