Ratio of global emissions contribution to share of global population

Several countries in the world have higher levels of carbon emissions per capita compared to their population size. This means that they contribute a significant amount of pollution relative to the number of people living in those countries.

Below is the map created by Reddit user UnrequitedReason, using World Bank data, showis which countries pollute the most disproportionately for their population.

Ratio of global emissions contribution to share of global population

The top three countries with the highest ratio of global emissions contribution to the share of the global population are Qatar, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates.

Despite its small population, Qatar has one of the highest carbon footprints per capita in the world. This is largely due to its extensive oil and gas industry.

Similar to Qatar, Kuwait has a high per capita carbon footprint due to its heavy dependence on oil production.

The United Arab Emirates' reliance on fossil fuels, especially in industries such as energy and transportation, contributes to its high per capita emissions.

Moose population in North America

The moose ( Alces alces ) is the largest member of the deer family, characterized by its massive size, long legs, and distinctive broad, palmate antlers found in males. They have a dark brown or black coat and a humped shoulder. Moose are primarily found in the boreal and mixed deciduous forests of North America, Europe, and Asia. They are solitary animals, often found near bodies of water, and are herbivores that feed on leaves, bark, twigs, and aquatic vegetation. Despite their size, moose are strong swimmers and can run up to 35 miles per hour. The moose population in North America is shrinking swiftly. This decrease has been correlated to the opening of roadways and landscapes into this animal's north range. In North America, the moose range includes almost all of Canada and Alaska, the northern part of New England and New York, the upper Rocky Mountains, northern Minnesota and Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, and Isle Royale. In 2014-2015, the North American moo

Map of Fox Species Distribution

Foxes are small to medium-sized members of the Canidae family, which also includes wolves, dogs, and other related animals. There are about 37 species of foxes distributed around the world, and they inhabit a wide range of environments, from forests and grasslands to deserts and urban areas.

They are adaptable and can live in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and urban areas. Arctic Fox ( Vulpes lagopus ): The Arctic fox is found in the Arctic regions of North America, Europe, and Asia. They have adaptations that help them survive in cold climates, such as a thick coat that changes color with the seasons. Gray Fox ( Urocyon cinereoargenteus ): The gray fox
