India has massive issues with pollution from industrial manufacturing

It’s still a developing country, but they exceed in areas where others fail. Their wildlife conservation efforts really are praiseworthy. The point isn’t that India is the gold standard of environmentalism but that they excel in certain aspects of it where other countries fail despite sharing the same economic system. This discrepancy can’t be explained by economic system alone, there are clearly other factors in play like politics, culture, geography, and so on.

Capitalist countries will have environmentalist projects as a means to greenwash its image. That’s all.

How is it greenwashing when these projects address real issues and produce real results? That sounds like an incredibly fragile cope to help justify the extremely lazy notion that capitalism is inherently bad and is at fault for everything wrong with the world.
