    You’re right… The “more than 20 countries” thing, is about 1000x away from the real number too, so I guess they dropped a “kilo” somewhere and somehow didn’t react to getting an obviously absurd result

      Honestly I could maybe believe the 20 countries thing because it is highly dependent on what countries those 20 are and there’s a lot of tiny countries out there

      I think they definitely dropped a kilo somewhere for the numbers they got tho

        Yeah, the 20th least polluting country is near 1000x worse than the estimated CO2 footprint in the article
