Original Note:
Recent EPA data on US greenhouse gases (GHG) differs from this graph - which leaves out Carbon Dioxide (CO2), the main human-caused driver of climate change. Per the EPA, GHG emissions increased in 2021 by 6% - driven largely by CO2 -but were 17% below 2005 levels. https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/inventory-us-greenhouse-gas-emissions-and-sinks
