This is an interesting and insightful report and study. The 291 million Americans are creating greenhouse gases and pollution greater than over three billion other peoples around the planet. Some of the ratios between state(s) and a nation creating a similar level of pollution are alarming when comparing their populations. Just four states - Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma - create as much pollution as India ! And surprisingly, another four states - North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, and Iowa - exceed the pollution created by Brazil ! And just eight states - Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland - create greater pollution than the entire continent of Africa !*****
