The USA is 3.797 million mi².
The Earth's landmass is 57.268 million mi².
So, the USA makes up only about 7% of the Earth's surface area but puts out 15% of all carbon emissions? That's still kind of a lot. Especially if other countries are seeking to emulate the American standard of living. If the US wants to be a leader, it needs to lead in cutting down on emissions and encouraging other countries to do the same.
