As a European, it seems absurd to me one would celebrate the short term benefits of being one of the by far most destructive (per capita) countries on earth regarding global climate (challenged only by a few oil states).

Is a temporary advantage worth destroying the planet forever?

I just think we have vastly different understandings about what actually helps the environment and what’s even happening to the environment.

This particular law is probably going to cause more resource waste not less. Holding inventory or distributing it costs money.

Btw have you taken up this topic with china, India, or Africa?
