"the US economic boom is largely attributable to slavery and WW2 decimating its rivals and forcing them to agree to quasi-vassality. Should we bring back slavery and start a new world war? So that it's "fair" for the developing countries?"

Ah, another strawman I have to argue on the internet. I did not say that, so don't put it in my mouth, please.

Tell me why you think that things science already confirmed are "lunacy" to you?

Asking you to consider an analogous situation is hardly the same as claiming you said anything you didn’t.

The US did benefit from slavery and the fact that most of Europe ended up destroyed in WWII.

However, it did not use green energy to build up its huge industry. It used fossil fuels. If it did use carbon-free energy sources, I would have agreed and wouldn't be such a climate-change skeptic now.
