The US had just 5 percent of the world's population, yet we emit 15 percent
of the greenhouse gases. It's not from burning forests, just open your
eyes and look around.



The question is would it really make any difference? CO2 started
rising as the population started rising, long before we knew what to
do with oil


Total claptrap. Your chart doesn't mean what you think it means.

The uptick in population at the far end of the chart happens
to correlate quite well with the uptick in fossil fuel usage
(i.e. the Industrial Revolution) over the same period of time.

You also should actually point to the original - you've removed any
attributions from your copied jpg which makes it completley useless
for drawing any conclusions.


The CO2 is from NASA, with the data sources (ice cores) noted. The
population from the UN but it is going to be duplicated from multiple
sources.
