I'm confused about what other normalization is needed. China and India have (combined) 1/3 of the world population. Why shouldn't they be responsible for 1/3 of the world emitted CO2?
- pelasaco 6y agoAs I understood from the post, the user tried to use the relation Population x CO2 emission to support that Brazil "has more preserved nature and a smaller carbon footprint than most other countries".. but to have China, Mexico and India as the top 3 cleanest countries in the World doesn't really make sense, no?
- moefh 6y agoThat list is not complete -- US is not the first, and India is not the last in the World. A better picture can be seen in the link in that comment. I think that list is meant to show that a lot of the rich industrialized countries emit much more per capita than developing countries, and even China (which is usually heavily criticized for high emissions).
