Energy-related CO₂ emissions per capita in the U.S. 2020, by state
Wyoming emitted more energy-related carbon dioxide per capita than any other U.S. state in 2020, at 96.4 metric tons (tCO₂). This was more than six times the national average. Wyoming's large carbon footprint is because of its coal industry, which produces the most coal in the U.S.. Texas, which is the most polluting U.S. state, ranked tenth on a per-person basis.
