 Where are you with respect to people like me who accept that humans
can influence the global climate (in a warming kind of way) but
despairs that any effective climate change treaty can do the trick as
long as China and India are massively using coal power and expanding
their use of it?

Their sins(means inconveniences) should not be ours. We produced
most of the warming gases in the last 70 years or so and we should not
refrain from moving away from fossil fuels for fear of loss of profits
on the part of Fossil Fuel Companies CEOs. Meantime the USA and likely
Canada are exporting a lot of fossil fuels including some of the coal
China is burning.

 Frankly if Canadians (all 35 million plus of us) all committed suicide
overnight it wouldn't have 1/4 the effect on the global climate than
if China reduced their coal emissions 20% - and they need to reduce
them considerably more than that to meet the targets.

Well if China doesn't reduce its emissions we can sanction
them and reduce world imports of the stuff made via pollution.
They are building out solar and wind power facilities so
eventually they should catch up with the power needs and start to
take the coal offline. The climate change has been harsh for them
as for us.
