Remember when India said they only care about Indians when the world tried to get them to stop buying Russian fossil fuels When Russia first invaded Ukraine?
Now they want sympathy from the world because their reckless fossil fuels usage and pollution have caused the effects of global warming to be much much stronger locally?
Maybe they shouldn’t have bought all those cheap fossil fuels?

It’s almost like India has a very tiny part of cumulative historical emissions — it’s largely a problem created by others, and imposed on them.
But you knew that already and are just here to blame the victim.

Eww, why use a YouTube video as a source?
But to expound on my point…
Participate pollution is what’s fucking India up, and that is a very local issue. In India it’s majorally from coal/wood/cow manure being burnt for heat and it cooking. When you do that (especially with inefficient methods) pieces of unburnt fuel get carried into the atmosphere, that is particulate pollution
But you never seem to see my word on this stuff, despite me spending a significant amount of time explaining climate change and pollution to you.
So here’s some studies and articles, you don’t have to take my word.

You don’t have to argue about this, you can view it as an opportunity to learn something your apparently already passionate about. Learning is a good thing, and it’s a bad thing if anyone ever stops.

I see more victim-blaming and trolling.

Didn’t click that because it might be another YouTube link.
But you are right, particulates don’t create heat, it’s not magic.
It traps heats…
Like, that’s kind of what climate change is…
None of it is creating heat, it’s retaining heat from the sun.
I honestly wasn’t going to reply again, but if you think any type of pollution honestly creates heat, that’s a big enough misconception I feel obligated to point out
It all just traps and retains heat from the sun. Because of it temperatures don’t cool as much as night, and makes the next day hotter.
And it just keeps stacking, day after day after day…
