If you can't quantify or back up your claim, you probably shouldn't make the claim in the first place.

LOL indeed in the top ten... number 10 in fact ! But this cuts off at 2004 :doh:

Someone needs to get on Qatar's case :rotfl:

Hey look Canada beat us !

Number 10 for the largest industrialized nation on earth is pretty good I would think.

Last time I checked the US has a few more citizens that the UK or Germany. Sorry I dont have a link to substantiate that but again I believe it to be true.

Furthermore I do believe the industrial output in the US is a good deal greater than the mentioned EU countrys at least for the time being. Im pretty sure thats factual as well.

I did note the abscence of chunks of data from a 'comprable' nation such as Russia. Also again I noticed it cuts off at 2004, why?

Russia is on there, down in 30th place. Their number is about half of ours. China is in 91st place, with a number less than 20% of ours.

Ah I see what they did now Russia has been 'split' in two one for russia and another for the soviet union. Isnt that cute :rotfl:

What does that have to do with the data?

Well it put the soviet union in last place. Might say it skewed it a tad :03:

I can disprove them if I stick to your standards.

In May 2008 over 8.3 billion scientists agreed at a 2 day summit in
Luxembourg that the USA did not have the world's tightest emission
controls.

Sorry I cant 'prove' my claims, even more curious that no one can
disprove them.

Linkage ? :rotfl:

8.3 billion might be a tad excessive.

The USSR isn't in last. It's at the bottom because it's not part of the ranking, since it's not a state anymore.

If you sort it by 1990 numbers (when the USSR was still a state) it comes in about 20th. Its 1990 number (12.8) is still well behind the USA's 1990 number (18.9).
