Why not measure surface area polluted and how much of that is in a country, rather than very long lists of individual cities? E.g., China - 100km2, India 500km

Why not measure surface area polluted and how much of that is in a country, rather than very long lists of individual cities?
E.g., China - 100km2, India 500km2 (making up numbers), rather than list 300 cities from each country as nearly equal pollution?
