In the episode, Jay Whitman said the US is the world's top CO2 polluter. This is entirely false. China is the world's top CO2 polluter, responsible for 28% of the world's CO2 emissions (2018 UCSUSA data).
This show continues to spew made up information, like the claim above, with no concern whatsoever. It's irresponsible and dangerous. This episode just hid the fact that China is the world's top CO2 polluter (by far), and you probably have tons of viewers who wrongly believe the US is now the world's top CO2 polluter.
Further information actually shows the US' CO2 emissions are DECREASING about -10%, while China, India, etc's CO2 emissions are INCREASING +150%.
