Here's a great graphic showing where carbon emissions come from (top) and where they go. They come from fossil fuels and land use changes (agriculture and deforestation and fires); and they go into the atmosphere and oceans and soil/vegetation. #climate

These graphs show fossil fuel contributions (bottom left); total national emissions (upper right); & per person emissions (lower right). While most media are only showing the massive Chinese/India emissions, the US is BY FAR the largest carbon polluter, per person. #climate
