Any Californians affected by this fire?

About 25% of the CO2 since the industrial revolution is Murican made. Probably more of you count the stuff made in other countries that we create the demand for. Am I just supposed to be a search engine? You can look these things up too you know.

Out of curiosity, if America is 25% responsible for the fires (since your original figure somehow pins 95% of the blame on humanity and not the ice age), perhaps we should go to war with China over their outsized contributions to the warming.
Good thing Trump won. Now we can shore up our military strength in anticipation of action, in the name of the planet.

What outsize contributions? We've contributed twice as much in our history with a fraction of their population. Even now with them having a higher annual number they're still contributing a lot less per person.

China currently contributes the most to global warming, as it is the largest emitter of carbon dioxide globally, accounting for roughly 35% of total global emissions, primarily due to its reliance on coal-fired power plants to fuel its rapidly growing economy; this means that China's actions have a significant impact on climate change.
Oh.

That doesn't contradict anything I told you. I already acknowledged that they're the biggest in terms of raw output per year now. Per capita they're still well below us. Learn to read, bro.
China is the main human contributor. Next is the ice age.
There’s nothing to be done on my end. Good game. I win. Moving one

You already lost the ice age argument. Just like you lost the outsized contribution argument and the historical contribution argument. How many times do I need to teach you this lesson, old man? You're a sub 5/10 debater. -

China makes up over a quarter of the contribution per your own epa numbers. Give up. You’ve lost.

They have 4x the population with 2.5x the emissions. Compared to us, which is a very low standard to beat, that's comparatively clean. They could be doing better. We should be too. They're the ones putting more effort into it and expected to hit their absolute peak this year.
