If we invest to develop the technology for e.g. clean energy then we can easily export it. If solar becomes dirt cheap and easy to install and maintain then it would be perfect for Africa where it's mostly sunny. Solar would be cheaper and easier than burning hydrocarbons.

People don't seem to get that

  • CO2 emissions are decoupled from GDP, and that
  • developing countries might not walk the same path to prosperity as the industrialized countries did.

there is no absolute, global decoupling happening. it is a lie used to propagate dreams of green growth.
