Your Statement is simply false. Wrong. Incorrect...Unless you're writing about the European Union.

"A December 20 press release says the EIA study, entitled "Emissions of Greenhouse Gases in the United States 2001," reports that greenhouse gas emissions totaled 1,883 million metric tons of carbon equivalent last year, compared with 1,907 million metric tons in 2000. The report said the 2001 decline of 1.2 percent is in contrast to an average annual growth rate of 1.3 percent observed during the decade of 1990-2000....Estimated U.S. emissions of carbon dioxide, which account for more than 80 percent of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, decreased by 1.1 percent in 2001, the largest annual decline of the 1990 to 2001 period. " - Dec 2002 US State Dept.

The actual report:

re:"No, the rate of growth in greenhouse gas decreased. The actual amount was still increasing from already very high levels."
