How does that make sense? The US reduced their emissions by shifting production to China, and China gladly lapped it up (in massive amounts).
It would be good to have a graph showing where the ultimate products of these emissions ended up.

You will notice that the picture does not change radically if you include emissions from trade (which is what you were asking).
Turns out while China expects a lot of stuff to the us, it doesn’t have that big of an impact on net emissions.
