“Horse and buggy”. How dramatic.
If at least the US got in line with the rest of the world, we would be half-way there.

The problem is not the 8 billion people, is the handful that have an disproportionate impact.
How does that make sense? The US reduced their emissions by shifting production to China, and China gladly lapped it up (in massive amounts).
It would be good to have a graph showing where the ultimate products of these emissions ended up.

You will notice that the picture does not change radically if you include emissions from trade (which is what you were asking).
Turns out while China expects a lot of stuff to the us, it doesn’t have that big of an impact on net emissions.
Thanks, but what is it supposed to show? Looks like West outsourced their production to the East and this data just shows that?
Disingenuous. Here is the correct chart to link if you want to assert emissions by country: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-co2-emissions-per-...
