Texas, the leader in emitting this greenhouse gas, cranks out more than the next two biggest producers combined, California and Pennsylvania, which together have twice Texas' population.

Did you even read the entire article or just that sentence? There's a valid explanation for it.

Yes I did. Did you?

The only two explanations I'm seeing are:

1) Texas is a populous state. The problem is that we produce a lot more C02 than California who has more people than we do.

2) That we export energy to other states, which is probably because we use cheap atmosphere polluting coal.
