These are acute observations. It's not all FOMO, and it's good that big economies, which often are also the biggest pollutants, are moving toward green energy and other improvements. The ideas aren't bad, but they often don’t match local realities. Especially when the rules are made for the benefit of those already ahead. Real development means working with what you truly have, without copying, and with a clear understanding of what it’s for and who it’s meant to help.
Ukraine, for example, tried moving toward a more eco-friendly path, but obviously, the ongoing war requires a lot of oil, a lot of fossil fuel, and brings a lot of destruction. So sometimes, it's also about the circumstances that make it very difficult and even impractical to follow important global trends.
