“As Dambisa Moyo and others suggest, it is time for rich Western nations to provide less aid, fewer restrictions – and much more trade, investment and banking expertise and opportunity; business, agricultural and property rights know-how; and energy technologies that will harness and utilize abundant, reliable, affordable hydrocarbon energy. They also need to stop propagating scare stories and imposing restrictions on the use of hybrid and genetically modified seeds to reduce malnutrition, and insecticides to reduce disease.”

Western environmentalists: Our countries were developed on fossil fuels, but it was a bad thing, so you poor countries have to listen to us and not use your own fossil fuels.
China: You have lots of stuff. We want to help you develop your resources. Also, we will pay good money to have a percentage of those resources sent to our country.
