That site is rating it by the person, so per person XYZ country is the worse. In that essence it's more of an accurate picture as to who pollutes the most per person.
One thing you must realize is that any site that states pollution levels and compares them world wide all have agendas, a lot of places want the US to look bad because we are such a terrible nation and we need to be scorned at.

The EPA is a leftest JOKE!! I wouldn't give them the time of day. I think WHO has a much better grasp of reality.
