Most countries are contributing to global warming either by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) or by deforestation (cutting down forests), or both. Agricultural practices, particularly cattle raising and wet rice farming! are also contributors.

China has recently overtaken the USA as the biggest emitter of carbon dioxide, but it still has a way to go to beat either the amount of CO2 that the USA has already emitted over the years, or the current per capita consumption of fossil fuel.
