It shows the splits between Mountonia, Flatonia, Laketonia, Hilltonia, and Coastlinia

It is…but when you stand in those ‘valleys’ and see the distance between the mountains you get how vast the US is.

I was legitimately shocked by this.. but, I admit, I was a little satisfied to find Canada's dirty little secret. Our friendly neighbors to the north aren't so friendly to the trees, eh?!

Right?! And there’s no breakdown of what that included.

is even propaganda hidden behind paywall these days?

If only he had taught Purdue the press and how to break it when he played there, we'd be perennial contenders....

Yup, we (Canada) do really poorly in this regard.

It looks an awful lot like a paywall to me.

Percapita? Countries dont pollute - people do.

For sure. TBH, I debated excluding Land Use entirely because it seems so irregular (and my understanding of it is pretty shallow), but it would mean excluding a bunch of negative emissions (the white "puffs" on the small "Land Use / Forestry" plot) so I kept it.

16% tax rate, not 5%

There is a line. All “NCAA Tournament” statistics from before the field expanded to 64 teams are not applicable to the modern format.

From the 1940s to the 1970s there were only 16 teams invited and much of that time the NCAA tournament was not even the most prestigious, that would have been the NIT. To “make a final 4” during that era required 2 wins (your home building in most cases) vs 4(+) in modern times.

There’s probably quite a bit of R&D that’s capitalized, so it would be on the balance sheet instead of here

This is exactly how I would guess a comment with your overall point would be written

Interesting how Brazil's emissions nearly disappear from the image when Agriculture and Land Use are excluded.

Yeah... but it would take me at least 120 years to clean up the dataset! The 29 year range was used very much out of convenience, because Climate Watch's dataset (with sector splits) only goes back to 1990.

I think the country-level story is pretty similar though for long-term emissions, at least based on Our World In Data and/or Carbon Brief (which Gabrielle Merite uses in her iconic emissions bars).

What do you mean? My eyes suck and I can read them zooming in on a phone. I think you need an optometrist

Thank you!

A lot when they sell their orchards to build Disneyland.
