As a reminder, the heat killing Europeans right now is caused by America pumping ungodly amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere with virility-signalling cars and air conditioning set to 60 fahrenheit everywhere. You are literally mocking Europeans for being killed by your waste.

Right now? Or a few weeks ago? Fewer weeks ago, America suffered the same heat wave but worse, so they got karma.

CO2 emissions have been consistently declining in both the USA and Europe for over 2 decades now. The bulk of the CO2 increase over that time period comes from China and India.

Americans also invented the solar photovoltaic panel. You're welcome.

Also, since we're playing this game right now, I'd be remiss to not remind you that American individuals do over an order of magnitude more charitable giving than the entire EU combined, on a raw dollar basis.

Speaking of giving - since 2014, the EU has purchased approximate €700-€900 billion worth of oil and natural gas alone from Russia (total EU imports from Russia exceed €1T in that time period), while offering less than €300 billion in support to Ukraine.

The EU is responsible for funding Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and has given more than twice as much money to Russia than it has to Ukraine.

America, on the other hand, has appropriated nearly $200B to Ukraine (over $100B in direct aid), yet paid only a tiny fraction of that to total Russian imports since 2014.

In other words, America is a net economic supporter of Ukraine, while the EU is a net economic supporter of Russia.

You are not "the good guys" that you think are.

Global warming didn't start two weeks ago, nor two decades ago. Most of human generated CO2 and most of the calories accumulated by greenhouse effect are still directly caused by Americans, both in absolute numbers and relative per capita. >Americans also invented the solar photovoltaic panel. Americans also elected PV panel haters, and are still destroying whole regions to extract more oil, both overseas and at home. >Also, since we're playing this game right now, I'd be remiss to not remind you that American individuals do over an order of magnitude more charitable giving than the entire EU combined, on a raw dollar basis. Hi, cool, are you going to give AC units to Europe? And the Middle East? And India/Bangladesh etc.? Maybe we should prosternate at your feet and thank you for you magnifiscence, oh great solvers of problem you caused.
