-—Why is China a “developing nation”? They seem to have everything a “developed nation” has, and do all the things a “developed nation” does.-—

Because they are...

China has a small capitalist zone...small for a huge country

The rest of the country is pleasantry. Most of china does not have indoor plumbing...

Not surprised to see we all see the truth of this BS.

“The USA is not sending enough of their taxpayer’s dollars to us”.

America first, baby.

Has there ever been a developing nation that has become developed?

Ahh ... not to worry, there has been active volcanic activity below the Antarctic’s icecaps for TENS OF MILLIONS OF YEARS so we actually have nothing to worry about. Sometimes in the Antarctic, ice melts and, guess what, the ice-water refreezes after flowing a relatively short distance away.

OK, having posted the above logical and fact based words, I can now post my usual reaction to seeing such “alarmist” items....

...OH NOEEEO...WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!

I seem to recall that back around 1960 I heard people in the media using the term "backward countries" in reference to what are now called "developing countries"—i.e., countries that are not developing.

This was also back in the days when the phrase "culturally disadvantaged" was used to refer to what is now called "multicultural."

Anyone who can’t see through this ploy cannot say “wealth redistribution.”

Can anybody tell me what is the correct earth temperature? That way we will know when we are there.

This garbage is way past old.

It’s high time we start crashing their parties and sorting this out. Ignoring them doesn’t work. They’re already directly costing me over 5k a year in a carbon tax. Years ago I was entertained by their stupidity, now I’m just angry.

The Creepozoid Wackos have so destroyed the real meaning of words. Almost all life on Earth is carbon-based. CO2 is PLANT FOOD! I have a sign in my office that drives the creepozoids crazy ‘Large Carbon Footprints Make for Happy Trees.’ If they actually bother to discuss reality, I teach them the Carbon Cycle. I also teach them that the next Ice Age is coming, and nothing can be done to prevent it. Even if we started pumping as much CO2 as possible into the atmosphere, the Sun is getting cooler, less sunspots.
