What is the author talking about?
None of these two suggest that
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP) , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)

Article should have included comparative Percapita CO2 emissions, Especially if it wants to question the validity of Indian argument.

Rich countries, have no Moral High ground to question developing countries if they despite being rich and able to afford Pollution free ways are not willing to change. PerCapita emission cap should be, if anything, lenient towards Developing countries. India has not even reached 10% of Percapita Emission of Rich countries.

One thing that appears to not make the agenda is that money is a proxy for energy. In both directions — energy is the source of money and having money enables the “haves” to have access to energy.
