Ctrl-F. "China". Yea, figured.
That's because the underlying study, which extrapolates it's data from Rystad Energy's private production estimates, focuses exclusively on oil and gas. New coal plants and capacity are ignored entirely.
The idea that the US is "planet wrecker in chief" due to this single variable analysis and without considering how that energy is used both domestically and internationally is both comical and absurd. Particularly given that their only conclusion is, like all breathless climate reports, to just use less energy without any replacement strategy.
We live in the modern dark ages.
