I lived 14 years in South America, in rural as well as urban areas in four different countries. Carbon emissions are lower in some places because no one owns a car. Serious industrial pollution can occur, and multi nationals are at times responsible.

The graphs you link to, simply demonstrate that the U.S. uses more energy and energy per capita than other nations.

While other nations are upset that the U.S. did not sign the Kyoto treaty, they are upset not so much because the treaty was well designed to reduce pollution but that the U.S. refused to limit its' economic growth.
