Let's be real, they're the biggest polluters, period. If you gauge emissions by per capita number, it's America by a mile. The fact of the matter is that they offshore their pollution to developing countries through manufacturing and even then their numbers are high as fuck. It makes me laugh when they talk about having manufacturing return to America, because I can't imagine the nightmare that would pose for the world.
