A cartogram: the familiar world map, deformed so that each country is drawn at a size proportional to its annual fossil CO2 emissions. Modern borders.
The ranking beside the map tells a different story from the map itself. Per person, Qatar emits 41.3 tonnes a year, followed by Kuwait (26.2t), Bahrain (24.3t) and Trinidad and Tobago (22.9t). The United States is ninth at 14.2t. The world average is 4.6 tonnes per person. The ranking covers countries of 1 million people or more.
