I also note that what is listed as "Korea" appears to be only South Korea (also not an Annex I country).<br /><br />If they had included non-OECD nations and limited it to the same range (from the top emitter to Turkey) then it would have been a top 97 list instead of a top 30 list. That a lot of emission omission.<br /><br />I don't fault them for limiting the list to prevent tediousness but limiting it by OECD status instead of emissions is odd.<br /><br />It would have been interesting to see the chart adjusted in light of Qatar's 55.4 metric tons per capita (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_dioxide_emissions_per_capita" rel="nofollow">wiki</a> says their peak was 65.8 in 1997). Apparently the wiki table doesn't count CO2 from <a href="http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_much_CO2_is_exhaled_by_the_average_human_each_year" rel="nofollow">exhaling</a> because they list Chad, DR Congo and a few others at zero.Col.
