    Now do emissions per capita! Something in this graph is suspicious to me with Canada being so low compared to other data I've seen.

      Consumption is also important to account for countries (UK) that consumes products produced offshore (China)

      On a per capita basis, China doesn't even make the top 20. Interestingly, the data are out there but no one seems to have made a visualization yet. I'll take a crack at it later.

      I think Canada just gets away with having a tiny population - at 38 million, they're at roughly 5% of the combined US/EU population. Higher cumulative per capita emissions than the US, though.
