Why do you think that China's per capita carbon footprint is higher? I'll give you a hint: it rhymes with "Manufacturing all of the toys and treats that Capitalism is selling". But also yes, China is capitalist. They weren't really ever communist by definition. Just like how North Korea isn't a democracy, despite calling themselves one.
Actually, that graph isn't adjusted to per capita. If it was, the US would be on top.
