This sounds a little misleading. The U.S. may have cut more pollution but I am sure they still have more pollution going into the air than Canada. Like if the U.S. is polluting 10 million tonnes of pollution and Canada is polluting 3 million tonnes and the U.S. cut theirs in half to 5 million and we cut ours by a third. On the surface the U.S. is polluting less.
