Greenhouse gas emissions soar – with China, US and India most at fault

Yeah headline somewhat misleading. US did jump again after covid recovery but has been dropping pretty consistently since 2007 when they peaked in co2 emissions from energy production and is still well below that. Currently at about 1987 levels of emissions. Not that they don't need to be dropping even faster of course though.

China's co2 emissions consistently rising still, but you could also point out that the US, Canada, Australia and Russia haven't cut enough to get below China's per capita emissions yet. So while they are the biggest emitter, they aren't the biggest emitter per person.

Biggest emitters per capita are persian gulf states. Not super surprising.

India lags well behind both China and the US in per capita emissions.

Many European countries have dropped below China in per capita emissions already.
