It's interesting how aviation keeps being made a scapegoat for CO2 emissions while certain countries which continuously lead it in terms of CO2 emissions remain unremarked.
According to the most recent report from the EU's EDGAR database, CO2 emissions in 2021:
#1 = China, 12,466.32 Mtons (32.93% of the global total)
#2 = United States, 4,752.08 Mtons (12.55%)
#3 = India, 2648.78 Mtons (7.00%)
#4 = Russia, 1942.54 Mtons (5.13%)
#5 = Japan, 1084.69 Mtons (2.87%)
#6 = Iran, 710.83 Mtons (1.88%)
#7 = International shipping, 699.72 Mtons (1.85%)
#8 = Germany, 665.88 Mtons (1.76%)
#9 = South Korea, 626.80 Mtons (1.66%)
#10 = Indonesia, 602.59 Mtons (1.59%)
#11 = Saudi Arabia, 586.40 Mtons (1.55%)
#12 = Canada, 563.54 Mtons (1.49%)
#13 = Brazil, 489.86 Mtons (1.29%)
#14 = Turkey, 449.72 Mtons (1.19%)
#15 = South Africa, 435.52 Mtons (1.15%)
#16 = Mexico, 418.35 Mtons (1.11%)
#17 = International aviation, 390.17 Mtons (1.03%)
China, for the 17th year in a row, was the #1 emitter of CO2 in the world, pumping out 2.6 times more than the United States in 2021, and 32 times more than international aviation.
