You do realize how many people in the world live in houses that aren’t even fully-enclosed, right? Usually in some of the places that will be most impacted by climate change, too. Air conditioners won’t be of much help to them.
Also, do you know how much coal China burns each year?
Okay so just send in the Chinese with their concrete and bulldoze these people’s homes to build them nice new climate-controlled living spaces while also indebting them in higher amounts than they’re likely to make in their lifetimes.
Cause that’s different from colonialism how?

It’s crazy that you treat this as an insurmountable obstacle. Much less that there’s no political cache in surmounting it.
