"United states" and "united states of america" should be accepted for USA. "united kingdom" should be accepted for UK. Other than that, good quiz.

Surprisde to see Iran and Saudi Arabia on the list. ALl that oil production and cheap gas might cause it I guess. Iran and Saudi Arabia, doubt they will, but they should take steps to develop solar power. They can generate as much solar power as oil, I am sure

Per capita would be better- everyone seems worried about China, yet they are only the #1 polluter because they have nearly 1.2 billion people compared to 300,000 million in the US

UK and Canada are other examples of why per capita is better.

anna and chrismet - I would argue that per capita is also useful but not better. A Per capita chart would not give you the size of each nation, but pairing such a quiz with this one would show you where the real risk is.
