Still haven't figured out Outlook properly yet (and i'm at work so don't
start suggesting beneficial switches to mutt, pine or other non-microsoft
friendly contraptions), so if any of the following looks badly formatted,

If CO2 emissions is what you are looking for then, IIRC, first world
emmissions are way,way higher per capita than third world countries. I'll
try to find my sources (i'm sure the stats appeared in New Scientists a
number of times, but i can't remember when) but again, my vague recollection
was that australia had top spot in the per capita competition and the US
kicked in the total emmissions division.
