One of my other videos about the environment... I had a comment from someone saying that the US doesn't need to do anything, it only contributes 15% and that it's China and India that need to change. Firstly, that's not even remotely true... the US is a massive polluter... but most importantly, even a country that only contributes 1% will still feel 100% of the climate emergency in their region. Incredible weather events aren't going to discriminate... I totally agree with your sentiment. The cities with plenty of water absolutely should not be getting complacent.
