I think it is a combination of things.
Our industry is booming.
Our housing starts are high which means more suburbs which means low density housing which means more cars per household and more energy required to light and heat.
There is coal fire, etc.
The percentages can be a bit confusing. If a nation was issuing 10 pounds and reduced their amount by 3 pounds to 7 pounds, they have made a 30% reduction. If another nation produces 1000 pounds and reduces 30% they have stopped producing 300 pounds of emmissions.
They both hit the list at -30% but which one is doing a better job of cutting emissions?
Not making excuses, just trying to point out that these lists can be a bit misleading...
