Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to data from the Global Carbon Atlas, as of 2021, China is the highest global carbon dioxide emitter, followed by the United States in second place. However, when considering per capita rates of carbon dioxide emissions, the United States does not rank among the top ten highest polluters. This makes option A the most accurate statement among the listed options. Option B is incorrect because Africa as a continent emits less carbon dioxide than the United States. Option C is incorrect because countries such as Qatar and Kuwait have per capita rates of carbon dioxide emissions that are higher than that of the United States. Option D and E are not entirely accurate because there is no consensus on the projected changes in carbon dioxide emissions in the United States.
