Historically?

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1007454/cumulative-co2-emissions-worldwide-by-country/

> United States was the biggest emitter in history as of 2021, having released 422 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide (GtCO₂) into the atmosphere since the birth of the industrial revolution. This accounted for roughly a quarter of all historical CO₂ produced from fossil fuels and industry. China was the second-largest contributor to historical emissions, having released 250 GtCO₂.

> The leading carbon majors are all fossil fuel companies, with the top twenty polluters emitting almost 500 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent in the past half a century. This is roughly 35 percent of the global total emissions produced during this period.

But they want you to blame cows and engage in idiotic arguments about their farts or burps or their feels.

Per capita, that would be Qatar, with the USA at #10 and China at #28

At over 4 times the population of the USA it makes very little sense to compare absolute number.
