- blisterpeanuts 8y agoChina produces twice the CO2 emissions as the U.S. China produced 29% of global CO2 emissions in 2015, and the U.S. produced 14%. (wikipedia) Per capita numbers are rather misleading here. For example, Qatar has by far the highest CO2 emissions per person.
- Faaak 8y agoYes, but china has _much more_ inhabitants than the US. Per capita numbers are not misleading in this case as we want to know the mean commitment of every person.
