US energy usage is flat in real terms since 2000 despite skyrocketing population growth. In per capita terms, it's plummeting.

China builds hundreds of coal plants a year while they are exempt from scrutiny.

If this trend keeps going for a decade+, China might begin to approach US per-capita emissions.

Their coal burning isn't going up though.

Don't forget India as well

India increased renewables drastically in the last 10-12 years.
