Take a look at the above chart which was produced by the International Energy Agency and can be viewed at: http://www.iea.org/Textbase/country/maps/world/co2.htm
You will note that the United States and Chinese/Malaysian Industrial economies are the big releasers of CO2 on a global basis (that orange-ish color means a lot). The point which we have made is that this kind of information is only half or less of the story. The issue is what are we and they doing with the resources which we use to send this gas into the atmosphere? If we are an efficient user of energy and create more value in the world than most if not all other economies, we should be allocated the lion's share of energy to make sure very little of it is wasted. Trade should take care of distributing our stuff to other nations. With the value of the dollar, that makes it a bargain for most other economies.
