UN Says Communists Fight It Best

The communists fight is best because they have more air pollution than all the other countries combined?

I know, I'm missing something.

North Korea is a good model for fighting Global Warming. Be so poor your cannot afford to use electricity. Starve your citizenry to death so they do not consume resources or emit CO2. Make sure to kill anyone who is not happy with the first two situations.

A fair amount of China's pollution probably comes from people burning firewood for cooking and heat. An excerpt about the consequences of using firewood for cooking:

Mrs. Esther Abati (about 70) is a small scale farmer from Iwokun-Nla village in Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State. Despite her age, she still cooks for herself, but with firewood at a cooking stead located right in the middle of her mud house, thus emitting smoke that causes indoor air pollution constituting a serious threat to her health. Unperturbed by the smoke which chokes her up on a daily basis, Mama (as she is called by neighbours) said she had been cooking in the same location as long as she could remember. She remembered to have cooked great meals when her husband was alive and she was much younger. “We are used to cooking with firewood. Our forefathers also cooked with it and nothing happened to them; so, nothing will happen to us,” she said in Yoruba. Mama knows next to nothing about the health risks (as pneumonia, cardiovascular diseases, chronic lung disease and lung cancer, as well as ill-health) associated with cooking with firewood and other solid fuels such as charcoal, sawdust and agricultural residues, among others.

Back in the day, London was said to be perpetually foggy. But it wasn't fog that kept the air murky - it was smoke from cooking fires and fireplaces that used firewood or coal as cheap and convenient fuels. On a per capita basis, China burns less coal than Germany in an area with a lower population density than Germany.

Then what are those pictures we are seeing of the heavy smog clouds in Beijing?

Germany’s population density is 593 per sq mile vs China’s 365. However, I’d say it’s a good bet that no one in Berlin burns firewood for heat or culinary purposes, whereas in China, those who don’t are probably the exception.

UN Climate Chief Christiana Figueres is the daughter of a Costa Rican former President (3 times), sister of another CR President and a 1979 graduate of Swathmore College. Her biography is full of international politicking, especially on the ecology and poverty areas. She appears to be full of good intentions!

Depends on what your definition of "Best" is.
Capitalist owned factories spewing smoke = bad.
Collectively owned factories spewing smoke = good. A.k.a. Progress.

Well, anthropogenic global warming is a figment of the left’s imagination, so I don’t know about effectiveness of Communists “fighting” it, but if Christiana is referring to Communists being good at reducing energy consumption, she is correct. There’s no better system than Communism for keeping its citizens poor, hungry, cold, dwelling in cramped, crowed, dirty and dark housing, and bereft of goods, services and medical care. An economy to support such people requires very little energy.
