@Kbin_space_program@throws_lemy@LibertyLizard Or, you know, we could trace those emissions back to the source, which would land the blame squarely on the tons of US companies responsible.
Also, as an aside, why don’t you compare per capita emissions, since China has > 3 times the population of the US?

Because the ecosystem doesn’t care about pollution per capita.
Also, the reason the US is so high is because it refines most of the world’s oil.
Same reason Canada is so high. Alberta, by itself, is more than half of Canada CO2 emissions.
