In a scenario in which the world achieves net-zero by 2050, the United States would have the largest atmospheric appropriation debt worldwide, adding up to 7,200 U.S. dollars per capita. Canada was estimated to owe 5,000 U.S. dollars per capita to undershooting countries. In 2050, the U.S. alone was expected to account for over 40 percent of global carbon budget overshoot worldwide.
