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.
@Kbin_space_program @throws_lemy @LibertyLizard Sure, the ecosystem doesn't care about per capita, but the largest reductions in emissions would understandably come from the largest per-capita emitters.
Nothing I'm saying here is specific to China. We should be tracing back and allocating *all* emissions based on the 'instigator' of those emissions. It's sort of like blaming Togo or Benin for poor child slavery records while ignoring that most of the demand for that labor comes from *us*.
