And if you are a fossil fuel billionaire or executive you probably won’t live where emissions can get you so you won’t care.

Looking at world history, it’s so obvious how little the USA cares about its impact to the world. Racism, corrupt politicians and the post-war economic boom all lead to current American way of life, it’s obsession with roads and bigger cars and the lack of concern for children and those afflicted by illnesses or disabilities, the end result.

And deaths caused by air pollution are just a side effect of the problem. Imagine 90,0000 unintended deaths every year being committed by any military group on earth; it would be labelled a crime against humanity and blasted on mainstream media day after day to stoke fear in the populace, yet here we are. Dumb, deaf and blind to the suffering caused by the lack of progress over the past 70+ years. The lack of progress that kills us, goes ignored, because we don’t look at bombs like we look at cars. We don’t feel the pain because it’s blurred by the clarity of the modern obsession for excess.
