A chinese has much less per capita emission than let's say someone from a western country.

I think there should be a equal global limit on how much per capita CO2 your can release and if you exceed you should pay a penalty and if you are lower that limit you should be able to sell those credits.

Harsh penalties are the only way we can fix this issue unfortunately.

But of course the countries who would have to pay are precisely the ones that will never sign on that.
