Interesting graphic below and found here looking at not only carbon emissions per nation on the left, but also per capita emissions on the right with someinteresting results. “This per capita model, however, points out places where individuals of each country could have the biggest impact on reducing their overall emissions. According to the graphic above, residents of small island nations and territories, like the Virgin Islands, are frequently responsible for a larger than average personal carbon footprint, even if their homeland produces relatively little of the stuff.”
