And no amount of "encouragement" is going to stop people in other countries from growing their economies by any means available. Right now cheap energy is the best way for an economy to grow.
It makes no ecoonmic sense to destroy your own marketplace.
Most countries have a range of good energy options available to them: nuclear, natural gas, tidal, solar and wind are all sustainable forms of energy.
Coal is not.
Most countries realise this, which is why conservative parties around the world, from the UK to New Zealand, from Finland to Japan and from Argentina to Australia have climate change policies based on 21st century science.
The earth is not going to be "destroyed" if the average temperature is a few degrees warmer.
BTW no fossil fuel is a "sustainable source" they will all eventually be exhausted.
